Watch “Song of the Stars” Christmas Party Videos

 

Last week’s Song of Stars Live Christmas Party with Sally Lloyd-Jones was such a joy that I’m still thinking about it!

Sally read her new Song of the Stars Christmas storybook and answered questions from our online party guests. Also, we watched Christmas song performances from a sleigh-full of Sally’s talented musician friends.

Now you can watch those song performances from the party, plus some bonus videos we didn’t show, if you visit the Zonderkidz Song of the Stars Video Playlist.

(You will find performances from Jason Gray, Ellie & Drew Holcomb, Katy Bowser & Kenny Hutson, Randall Goodgame, and a lot more…)

 

2 Highlights from the Song of the Stars Party

1. Cutest Moment
Two-year-old Carter McCracken sings “Happy Birthday” to Jesus. Sweeter than any Christmas cookie, this video is guaranteed to bring you tears of joy:

2. Most Captivating Moment
As Sally read Song of the Stars, the story and pictures helped me see Christmas with a child’s eyes again. I felt like one of the animals on this page:

“The One who made us has come to live with us,” the animals say. Like them, I became awed over Christ’s birth. While the incarnation is rich with mystery, it also presents a crystal clear picture of the lengths God will go to in order to love us and take care of us.

I’ll leave you with Sally’s parting speech from the party:

“Just think… ‘The One who made us has come to live with us.’ What an incredible story we’re part of. How wonderful we have a God who loves us so much that he came to rescue us. So… I hope your Advent is filled with the wonder of this story that even the angels don’t tire of.”

With Sally Lloyd-Jones and my coworkers, I wish you a Happy Christmas!

Sally Lloyd-Jones is a leading writer of inspirational books for children, with an expertise in conveying biblical truth to young children. Her multiple award winner, The Jesus Storybook Bible, tells the Story beneath all the stories in the Bible. At the center of the Story is a baby, the child upon whom everything will depend, and every story whispers his name. He is the missing piece in the puzzle – the piece that makes all the other pieces fit together. A Bible like no other, The Jesus Storybook Bible invites children, and adults alike, to join in the greatest of all adventures, to discover for themselves that Jesus is at the center of God’s great story of salvation – and at the center of their own stories too.

 

Dr. Tim Keller, Pastor of Redeemer Church in New York City, says this about The Jesus Storybook Bible, "I would urge not just families with young children to get this book, but every Christian – from pew warmers, to ministry leaders, seminarians and even theologians! Sally Lloyd-Jones has captured the heart of what it means to find Christ in all the scriptures, and has made clear even to little children that all God’s revelation has been about Jesus from the beginning – a truth not all that commonly recognized even among the very learned."

Dr. Keller’s wife Kathy, a dear friend of Sally's, will be facilitating the LiveStream discussion, as well as inviting questions from the LiveStream audience.
