WHAT

A Christmas comedy skit where a church drama team tries to rehearse their nativity play—but someone accidentally grabs the wrong folder containing a script about Moses and the burning bush. Chaos follows as actors dramatically mix up Bible events until the team finally calms down, finds the right script, and performs a short but heartfelt nativity scene.

THEME

God’s truth brings clarity. Even when we get confused, teamwork and patience help us share the message of Jesus with joy.
