going to give presents to. - Hmm, that makes me think of a question. Why do you give? - Hmm, let's go on a Bible
Adventure to find out. First, put on your adventure bag. Now, shake your hands high in
the sky if you'll go with me. Woo, woo. - I'll give you some clues. - Friends, will you be
picture pass guessers with me? Okay, Shine, what's
the first picture pass. - It's something you have to
hold gently when it cries. (Shine shrills) - Hmm, friends, which picture pass is it? (clock ticks) - It is the baby. Put it in your adventure bag. Okay, Shine it's in there. What's next? - This one is all wrapped up
and it has a surprise inside. - Friends, which picture pass is it? (clock ticks) - Jolly jingle bells, it is the present. Put it your adventure bag. Only one more left, Shine what is it? - It's red and it makes
you think about love. - Hmm, friends, tell Shine what it is. (clock ticks) - The heart, put it in your adventure bag. Now let's zip our adventure bag together. - Now it's time to fly.
- Now it's time to fly. - Whoa, Whoa. My brain keeps thinking
about the question, why do you give? - Let's look in the Bible. - The Bible is God's book for you. You can trust, it's right and true. - The first Christmas gift, that stories from the
books of Matthew and Luke. In the Bible, it's about
when Jesus was born. - Let's watch it and see why we give. - [Narrator] The angel, Gabriel told Mary, "You will have a baby." "How?" asked Mary, "I'm not married?" "God's holy spirit will come down to you. The baby will be God's son." Mary believed him. Mary was engaged to Joseph, but
he didn't believe her story. So an angel visited him too. "Mary's not lying. Her baby will be God's son. You must name him Jesus." Many months passed. Then they traveled to Bethlehem. Joseph's hometown to be
counted by the government. After that long journey,
Mary was ready to give birth. But all the ends in Bethlehem were full. So God's son was born in
a stable wrapped in cloths and laid on a bed of hay. They named him Jesus. That night, an angel
appeared to some shepherds in the Hills near Bethlehem. "Good news," the angel said, "Your savior has been born. He's in Bethlehem, lying in a manger." Suddenly more angels appeared. So any of them that they filled the skies. "Praise God in heaven," they all sang. "And may everyone who pleases
Him receive His peace." When the angels left the
shepherds hurried to Bethlehem. They found the baby, their
savior lying on a bed of hay. It was just as the first angel had said. After the shepherds had seen Jesus, they went through the town. They were very excited. They told everyone what had happened and they praised God for what He had done. - Shine, I didn't see people giving any presents in that story. - That's because God was
the one who was giving - Horses and holy berries, God gave His son Jesus as the
very first Christmas present. - And now we give to others
because God gave Jesus to us. - That sounds like the
answer to our question. Why do you give? - I give because God gave me Jesus. - And I have a gift to give
Guy the Bible guy right now. See you shine. - See you, Emily. - Come on friends, let's go. (gentle music) - Hi, Guy? - Hi Emily. I'm reading about the first Christmas when God's in His son, Jesus to earth - Snappy snowman. I think I have a picture pass about that. Friends, which picture
pass do you hold gently when it cries? (Emily shrills) (clock ticks) - It's the baby. Jesus was born as a little baby. - Jesus was the first Christmas gift. That reminds me of a Bible verse. Friends, wiggle your ears if you're ready to
learn the verse with me. - I'm wiggling my ears - Looks like you are ready. John 3:16, God loved the world, mwah. - So much that He gave
His one and only son. (Guy shrills) - Guy, will you say
the verse again for us? - Sure, repeat after me. John 3:16. - John 3:16. - God love the world, mwah. - God loved the world, mwah. - So much. - So much. - That He gave. - That He gave. - His one and only son. (Guy shrills) - His one and only son. (Emily shrills) - Friends, I think you've got it. Now, say it with us. John 3:16, God loved the world, mwah. - So much that He gave,
gave His one and only son. (Emily and Guy shrills) (Emily and Guy laughs) - Good job, friends. God showed His love by giving us Jesus. - And I'm gonna show God's love to you right now by giving you something. - Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. - Open it, Guy. Open it. - It's a bookmark in
my favorite color blue for my favorite book, the Bible. Emily, tell me why do you give? - I give because God me gave me Jesus. - That's a great answer. Thanks for the bookmark, Emily. - You're welcome. Bye, Guy. - Bye Emily. Bye friends. - Come on. (gentle music) - Why are you so blue, Blinky? - Mr. Stone, it's Christmas and I don't have money to buy presents. - Think about the first Christmas. God didn't buy any presents. - Oh yeah. He gave us His son,
Jesus to show His love. - Think of ways you can show
God's love to your friends. God's love is the best Christmas present. - That's a super duper idea. Thanks Mr. Stone. (Blinky humming) - Zenia, I've got a great
Christmas present for you. - You do? What is it? - I'm gonna help you put your
toys away next time we play. - I do need someone to
help me clean up my room. Thanks, Blinky. - You're welcome. Merry Christmas. ♪ Do, do, do, ♪ ♪ Do, do, do ♪ ♪ Do, do, do ♪ ♪ La La La ♪ ♪ La La La ♪ ♪ La La La. ♪ - Clouded? Oh no, are you sad?

Merry Christmas. God loves you. - Oh, Lala. I'll remember my special
Christmas hug from you. See around Clouded. (Shine humming) - I'm looking for that star, Shine. Friends, do you see him? - Merry Christmas, Blinky. (Blinky laughs) - Hi, shine. I have a Christmas present for you. - What is it? - I'm gonna play hide and seek with you and you get to go first. - Thanks, Blinky. That's a great gift. You are my best friend ever. - One, two, three. (gentle music) - I've been thinking
about the Bible verse. Say it with me, friends. John 3:16. God loved the world, mwah. - So much that He gave
His one and only son. (Emily shrills) - Friends, who is God's one and only son? Jesus is and when God gave
us Jesus on Christmas, He came as a very special baby,
but He didn't stay a baby. Jesus grew up to save us
from our wrong choices and help us live God's way. That makes me wanna sing with Mr. Music. Come on. (guitar music) - Merry Christmas, Mr. Music. - Thank you, Emily. Oh, Merry Christmas to you too, friends. - We're on a Bible Adventure. Our question is, why do you give? - I know the answer. I give because God gave me Jesus. - That's why I brought
something to give to you. Friends, which picture
pass is all wrapped up with a surprise inside? (clock ticks) - Sparkling snowflakes, it is the present. - Emily brought me a present. Friends, what do you think it is? - Mr. Music, open it, open it. - Wowee, thank you, Emily. I really needed a notebook
to write new songs in. - I made it for you to
celebrate Jesus' birthday. - Presents remind me of the first Christmas gift God gave us. - Jesus. - Jesus, I even know a song about giving. Clap your hands together friends if you wanna sing a song with me. - I'm clapping my hands. Are you clapping yours? - Emily, can you hold this for me? - You bet. - All right, I'm gonna teach

a great Bible Adventure? - Yeah, we learned the
answer to the question, why do you give? - I remember the answer. I give because God gave me Jesus. Yeah, and the picture
passes helped us out too. Say them with me, friends. A baby, a present and a heart. - Tell me about the baby. - The baby reminds us
that God sent His one and only son, Jesus to earth as the very first Christmas gift. And the present reminds
us to give to others as a way to celebrate Jesus' birthday. - What did you learn about the heart? - We haven't learned about the heart yet. - Hmm, think about our Bible verse. - John 3:16. God loved the world, mwah. So much that He gave His one and only son. (Emily shrills) - Yes, God loves the world. - The heart is about love. God sent Jesus as the
first Christmas present because He loves us so much - And we give to others to
show them God's love too. - And I brought something to give to you. - A Christmas present, for me? Wait, thanks. Let's pray all our friends
show God's love by giving. - Okay, friends, bow your
heads and close your eyes. We're gonna talk to God together. Dear God, thank you for sending us Jesus. Help us to be givers like you. We wanna give to others to show your love. In Jesus name, amen. Jump in gingerbread. It's time to go. We'll see you next time. - For another Bible Adventure. - Bye, merry Christmas, friends.
