description: The Gospel accounts of Jesus' birth have captivated and inspired Christian faith for centuries. But the human, evocative portrayal of Mary, Joseph, and the other characters in The Nativity Story awakens our hearts and our imaginations in an entirely new way. The Nativity Story invites us to explore our faith and to listen for God's Word in our daily lives, and this user-friendly film study guide is a wonderful roadmap for the journey and provides a practical means for delving prayerfully into the mystery of our Savior's birth. Personal reflection includes thought-provoking questions on Scripture passages and the movie for integrating God's Word and one's own life. Group study features questions focusing on themes Journeying, Seeking, Prayer, Values and Virtues, and Story and Symbols. Whole community catechesis works as a springboard for weekly gatherings from the first Sunday of Advent through Epiphany, including questions that integrate the weekly Gospel reading and the movie for children, for teens, for adults, and for households of faith.About the Rose Pacatte, FSP, Director of the Pauline Center for Media Studies in Los Angeles, CA
