Christmas Story
The biblical story of Christmas involves the birth of Jesus.
The story usually begins with Joseph and Mary (the mother or Jesus and her husband) looking for a place to stay. They have returned to their home town of Bethlehem for the census and all the inns are full.
The innkeeper lets them sleep in his stable, and it is there that Jesus is born. There were Shepherds in the fields, and three Kings or Wise Men came to pay homage to the child.
Angels appeared and sang, a young drummer boy played and village people rejoiced.
Not all were happy; King Herod was none too pleased, nor were some High Priests, Roman Soldiers, and other village people.
