Nazareth Evening News” is a short, humorous, and heartfelt skit presented as a live news broadcast in biblical times. Two reporters try to make sense of the strange events surrounding Mary and Joseph—angels appearing, sudden travel plans, and talk of a child who will change the world. Through light comedy and simple interviews, the truth slowly unfolds: God is sending the Savior.
Though funny and fast-paced, the skit ends with a clear reminder that Christmas is not just a headline, but the arrival of God’s greatest gift—Jesus.
