CHRISTIAN CHRISTMAS POEMS
My Christian faith is usually at the heart of the thoughts and feelings that I have around Christmas time, making most of the Christmas poems that I write particularly relevant to church use. Feel free to use my Christmas poems in any non-profit making way that you can to spread the real meaning of Christmas, whether in a church sermon, rounding off a nativity service, or in your church magazine etc. All I ask is that you acknowledge me as the author so that my work can continue, and my website become better known and used, as I consider the words that I share to be God-inspired and therefore belonging to God and to be used for His purposes.
Some of my Christmas poems will be simply about the occasion and celebrations of Christmas, and these will be in the NON-RELIGIOUS category, deliberately so that schools can use those Christmas poems for educational purposes.
Some of my Christmas poems are specifically for use with nativities as I also write entire rhyming Christian nativity scripts for schools and churches, again highlighting the real meaning of Christmas but with some gentle humour, and which I sell as downloadable documents. I have included any of the ones which I give out freely with my nativity scripts in this Christian Christmas poems category too.

This 20 minute nativity script is purpose written for a church nativity service with a small cast of young people of reading age ( teenagers especially!) in a church with a fun, family atmosphere (adults are required to join in!)
The DIY Nativity Play……
- tells the traditional bible based nativity story in a hilarious, lighthearted way
- using narration full of humour, sarcasm and mockery of the adult volunteers (all scripted in rhyme for the narrators to read….with attitude!)
- is a great way to bring young and old together in a nativity service with a difference.
- has a great message: ie. WE ALL need to share the message of Jesus.
The fact that the whole script is narrated makes it simple to recast in the event of illness or absence.
Music is not provided with this nativity play as it is intended to be used with carols and hymns for the congregation to join in to, so suggestions of appropriate hymns to use are made. [click to continue…]
