Everyone agreed
it was the best ever, but nobody seemed to know
why exactly. One thing I did know, because of my mum and her understanding
of the Christmas story, the Herdmans finally got
what they needed most all along. A community. But they gave us something
we needed all along, too. For years, I thought about
the wonder of Christmas and the mystery of Jesus's birth
and never really understood it. But now, it didn't seem
so mysterious after all. When Imogene asked me
what the pageant was about, I told her it was about Jesus. But that was just part of it. It was about a new baby and His dirt-poor
mother and father who were in a lot of trouble. No money, no place to go,
no doctor, nobody they knew, no respect. But they were the ones God chose
to help change the world

Everyone agreed
it was the best ever,
00:00:03.503 --> 00:00:06.214
but nobody seemed to know
why exactly.
00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:08.549
One thing I did know,
00:00:08.055 --> 00:00:09.716
because of my mum
00:00:09.717 --> 00:00:12.998
and her understanding
of the Christmas story,
00:00:12.999 --> 00:00:15.431
the Herdmans finally got
what they needed most all along.
00:00:16.224 --> 00:00:17.433
A community.
00:00:18.001 --> 00:00:20.853
But they gave us something
we needed all along, too.
00:00:21.646 --> 00:00:23.981
For years, I thought about
the wonder of Christmas
00:00:23.982 --> 00:00:27.234
and the mystery of Jesus's birth
and never really understood it.
00:00:27.235 --> 00:00:31.322
But now, it didn't seem
so mysterious after all.
00:00:32.365 --> 00:00:35.001
When Imogene asked me
what the pageant was about,
00:00:35.999 --> 00:00:37.202
I told her it was about Jesus.
00:00:37.203 --> 00:00:39.497
But that was just part of it.
00:00:40.054 --> 00:00:42.124
It was about a new baby
00:00:42.125 --> 00:00:44.334
and His dirt-poor
mother and father
00:00:44.335 --> 00:00:46.169
who were in a lot of trouble.
00:00:46.017 --> 00:00:49.256
No money, no place to go,
no doctor,
00:00:49.257 --> 00:00:51.426
nobody they knew, no respect.
00:00:52.026 --> 00:00:56.431
But they were the ones God chose
