#5 – “Believe in the Lord Jesus” Stable Silhouette Craft
I love it when a Christmas craft project specifically ties the birth of Christ to the Gospel. After all, that’s why He came–to save sinners like you and me!
I definitely want my kids to catch that all-important fact when I teach about the birth of Christ. And I appreciate it when I find a cheap, easy craft that clearly connects Christ’s birth with the Gospel message.
This striking stable silhouette craft does exactly that, with its straightforward biblical message:
Believe on the Lord Jesus and you will be saved.
It doesn’t really get any clearer than that! 🙂
