WHAT:
A modern “review panel” evaluates Bethlehem inns based on how they treated Mary and Joseph on the first Christmas. Each reviewer gives dramatic, funny, over-the-top critiques, revealing the personalities of three innkeepers with wildly different customer service styles.
Only one innkeeper receives a glowing review—because he opened his heart and gave his stable to the Holy Family.
This expanded version includes longer comedic sections, greater characterization, extended dialogue, and more emotional depth in the message of compassion.

WHY:
To show students that true Christian hospitality is rooted in compassion—welcoming people as Christ welcomed us.
