This year’s perspective follows the life of Bea, a young girl who is excited when some of her relatives stay with them during the census. One of her cousins, Mary, is pregnant with a baby just like her mom was a few months ago with her baby brother! But Bea is filled with questions as shepherds claiming to see angels visit when her newborn baby cousin Jesus is born. And a couple years later, wisemen show up at the door! How come her baby brother didn’t get entertaining visitors and lavish gifts like gold? What was so special about Jesus?

When everything in Bea’s life seemed to be going well, tragedy strikes her little town, and Bea is left with grief, fear, and doubt in God. Why would a loving God allow such awful events to happen? Was He not powerful enough to stop bad things from happening? As Bea grows up and watches Jesus’ life, from his birth in a lowly manger to his death on the cross, she begins to find the answer she had been longing for all these years. This heart wrenching drama explores the depth of human grief and suffering in a sinful world, where the babe in the manger is the only hope.
