Would you please... 01:48 Do you love presents? 01:49 This present is a very special present for Jesus. 01:54 And we're going to tell you more about it 01:56 at the end of our program. 01:58 But we're going to all be able to give Him a special present. 02:00 Oh. Well, are you all ready? 02:04 Yes. I'm ready. 02:06 I want you to try to imagine what it was like 02:11 long, long ago in that little town of Bethlehem 02:16 when Jesus was born. 02:17 Okay? Okay. 02:19 Try to think about it in your mind. 02:21 Clip-clop, clip-clop went small donkey's hoofs 02:27 as he slowly climbed the last hill. 02:33 Mary rode on small donkey's back. 02:35 Joseph walked by small donkey's side. 02:37 Mary and Joseph were very tired. 02:40 Do you get tired? 02:42 You get tired, Miss Cinda? I get tired. 02:44 Yes, small donkey was very tired. 02:47 They had come a long, long way from the top of the hill. 02:51 Oh, a happy sight! 02:54 They saw the lights of Bethlehem. 02:57 That must have been exciting for them. 02:59 Joseph walked faster now. 03:02 Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop hurried small donkey down 03:06 the hill through the gate, into the little town 03:09 where they would rest and sleep. 03:11 Joseph asked for a room, but the innkeeper said... 03:16 What did he say? "No." 03:20 "No room," said the innkeeper. 03:25 "Is there no room where we can sleep?" 03:26 asked Joseph. 03:27 "Only a stable, I'm sorry." 03:31 Joseph lead small donkey toward the stable. 03:35 Mary and Joseph walked in. 03:40 He opened the creaky old door, he held up the lantern 03:44 the innkeeper had gave him and looked around inside. 03:49 What do you think he saw in the stable? 03:51 He saw spotted... 03:53 spotted cow, wooly lamb. 03:58 A donkey. 03:59 Yes, and stalls that were empty. 04:01 In one empty stall, he tied small donkey. 04:05 In another, he made a bed of straw for Mary and himself. 04:08 And soon they were fast asleep. 04:11 can we hear the more story... 04:14 some more of the story? 04:16 All right. Back to our story. 04:18 Does anybody remember where we left off? 04:21 They were in the manger. 04:24 They had just gone in, didn't they? 04:27 During the night, the most wonderful thing happened, 04:32 baby Jesus was born. 04:34 Joseph filled a manger with clean new hay. 04:38 Mary wrapped the baby in soft white cloth 04:43 and laid Him in the manger. 04:45 The animals seem pleased about baby Jesus. 04:49 Spotted cow mooed softly. 04:53 Can you moo? Moo! 04:57 And woolly lamb tinkled his bell. 05:00 Can you say ba! 05:02 Ba! Ba! 05:05 And small donkey just looked and looked. 05:09 Poor Jesus. 05:11 He had no crib to sleep in. Why? 05:15 He didn't even have a soft blanket. 05:19 I cannot imagine that 05:22 there was no room for baby Jesus. 05:25 Why? 05:26 If someone came knocking at my door, 05:27 I would give him my room. 05:29 I would, too. 05:30 Listen, I think I hear someone at the door. 05:32 Oh, Miss Cinda, can you get the door for us. 05:34 Oh, sure. 05:36 I wonder who could be at the door. 05:40 It's carolers. 05:44 Away in a manger 05:48 No crib for a bed 05:51 The little Lord Jesus 05:55 Laid down His sweet head 05:58 The stars in the sky 06:02 Looked down where He lay 06:06 The little Lord Jesus 06:09 Asleep on the hay 06:14 Away in a manger 06:18 No crib for a bed 06:21 The little Lord Jesus 06:25 Laid down His sweet head 06:29 The stars in the sky 06:33 Looked down where He lay 06:36 The little Lord Jesus 06:40 Asleep on the hay 06:45 Oh, thank you so much. That was beautiful. 06:48 Miss Cinda has a treat for you guys. 06:52 Thank you. You're welcome. 06:55 Thank you so much. 06:57 Happy holidays. Bye. 06:58 Bye. Thank you. 07:00 Bye-bye. Thank you. 07:03 Oh, I loved that. That was so beautiful. 07:08 You know, God must love us an awful lot 07:11 to send us His only Son to die for us. 07:14 I think so. 07:16 You know, that reminds me of a Bible verse in the Bible. 07:19 John 3:16. Do you know that verse? 07:21 Yes. I know that. 07:22 Let's say it together. Okay. 07:24 "For God so loved the world that He gave His 07:29 only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him 07:35 should not perish but have everlasting life." 07:40 I want to know more about baby Jesus. 07:43 All right. Let's go back to our story. 07:48 That night in a field in the little town, 07:51 shepherds were guarding their sheep. 07:55 Suddenly, a bright light as bright as the sun shone 07:59 all around them. 08:01 The shepherds were afraid and covered their faces. 08:04 The sheep were afraid and huddled together. 08:07 "Don't be afraid," said a kind gentle voice. 08:11 The shepherds uncovered their face, 08:13 they saw an angel all glowing with light, said the angel, 08:19 "I bring you good tidings of great joy. 08:23 Jesus our Savior is born. 08:25 You will find Him lying in a manger." 08:28 Then the sky was filled with shining angels 08:31 singing the glory song, "Glory to God in the highest 08:35 and, on earth, peace, goodwill toward men." 08:39 Oh, Miss Cinda, can you get the door? 08:41 Oh, sure. I love that story. 08:44 I like it, too. Hi. 08:45 Oh, look. It's Hailey and Melody. 08:48 Melody. Hey. 08:51 Let me help you with your coats off. 08:53 Thank you.

Okay. 09:37 Tired from the journey 09:42 They searched the town 09:46 But try as they might 09:50 Not a room could be found 09:56 Only a stable 10:00 With cattle all around 10:04 One night 10:06 One night in Bethlehem 10:13 One night 10:16 One night in Bethlehem 10:24 Joseph found a manger 10:29 For the baby's bed 10:34 Mary placed a pillow 10:37 Of straw beneath His head 10:42 Their hearts were filled with peace and love 10:47 A prayer of thanks was said 10:51 One night 10:53 One night in Bethlehem 11:00 One night 11:03 One night in Bethlehem 11:10 The eastern star was shining 11:15 Bright up in the sky 11:20 While shepherds kept their watch 11:24 In fields that were nearby 11:29 Heaven was rejoicing 11:34 Angels sang a lullaby 11:39 One night 11:41 One night in Bethlehem 11:48 One night 11:50 One night in Bethlehem 11:58 One night in Bethlehem 12:02 God fulfilled the master plan 12:07 And He gave His only son 12:11 To set us free 12:17 For God so loves the world 12:21 He gives everlasting love 12:26 To all of those who trust Him 12:30 And believe 12:36 Jesus Christ our Lord was born 12:41 The Savior of the world 12:45 One night 12:47 One night in Bethlehem 12:54 One night 12:56 One night in Bethlehem 13:04 One night 13:06 One night in Bethlehem 13:15 Oh! 13:17 That was beautiful. 13:20 We've been reading a book about one night in Bethlehem 13:24 when Jesus was born. 13:25 Thank you so much. 13:27 Oh, that was perfect. Thank you. 13:32 You're making a lot of people happy by going around 13:35 and sharing your song. 13:38 What's that present? 13:40 Oh, this is a present that we have for Jesus for Him 13:46 to use at 3ABN. 13:48 Oh, well, I have something 13:50 that I might be able to put in there. 13:52 Oh, would you like to put something in the box 13:54 when we're all through with our story today? 13:56 All of us are going to put something in the box, too. 13:59 And we're going to give it to Danny Shelton 14:02 so that they can use it to teach all the tiny tots 14:05 around the world about Jesus. 14:07 That's great. 14:08 Well, sure, you're welcome to put something in our box. 14:11 Okay. 14:13 Oh, that's wonderful, isn't it? 14:15 Yes. 14:17 We're so glad you're helping. 14:19 And that makes Jesus happy too, doesn't it, 14:22 when we give gifts to Jesus? 14:25 I'm so glad you came, Melody. Thank you so much. 14:29 Oh, thank you, Hailey. Thank you, sweetie. 14:32 Thank you for coming. That's wonderful. 14:35 Were you going to go sing to some more people right now? 14:37 Yes.

Thank you. 14:45 Thank you! 14:48 It's cold outside, so you're going 14:50 to want to get all bundled up. 14:52 You don't want to go out there without coats 14:54 on the snowy day like today. 14:57 Thank you so much for coming. Thank you for coming. 15:00 Bye-bye. Bye! 15:03 Oh, that was beautiful. That was. 15:07 Well, back to our story. 15:10 Do you know where we left off? 15:12 Yes. Where? 15:19 Were the angels singing the glory song? 15:21 Yeah. Yes. 15:23 As the angels went farther and farther away, 15:27 they looked like a twinkling bright star 15:30 in the dark night sky above Bethlehem. 15:33 "Come," said the shepherds, "let us go see." 15:37 They ran all the way to the stable 15:40 and there they found Joseph and Mary 15:43 and baby Jesus in the manger bed. 15:47 What a wonderful night that must have been 15:49 for the shepherds. 15:50 I bet they wanted to tell everybody about it. 15:54 Oh, I bet they did, too. 15:56 I know that I would have just wanted to tell the world. 16:00 Me too. 16:01 What a special night that must have been. 16:03 Had to be. 16:04 I would have loved to been in that old barn 16:05 when He was born. 16:07 Yes, that was a special night indeed. 16:10 But the shepherds were not the only ones to see Jesus. 16:14 In a faraway country, wise men saw the star and they said, 16:20 "It is the star of the baby king. 16:23 Let us go worship Him and take Him presents." 16:27 The wise men made ready their gifts. 16:30 One wise man had a bag of gold, another filled a jar 16:34 with frankincense, the perfume of flowers, 16:36 and another filled a special box with myrrh, 16:40 the perfume of spices. 16:42 The wise men gathered up their gifts, 16:44 mounted their camels, and rode toward the star. 16:48 They crossed rivers and hills and sandy deserts. 16:52 Sometimes it was hot, and sometimes it was cold, 16:57 but always they rode on following the star. 17:02 Then one night, the star stopped above a house 17:06 in the little town of Bethlehem. 17:09 Mary and baby Jesus and the wise men were all there 17:15 because they got off of their camels, 17:17 they went to kneel in front of where baby Jesus was, 17:21 and they gave Him their gifts. 17:24 The wise men bowed their faces to the floor 17:28 and they worshiped Him 17:30 because they called Him their King. 17:32 He's our King too, isn't He? Yes. 17:35 Because Jesus... 17:38 When Jesus grew up. 17:41 And you love Jesus, don't you? 17:44 Then after... 17:45 I know, Sylvia says she loves Jesus. 17:47 Yes. 17:48 And after the wise men said goodbye, 17:50 they mounted their gifts 17:51 and they began their long journey home. 17:58 You know, I would like to give a gift to Jesus. 18:01 So would I. 18:02 Oh, I'd like to give a gift to Jesus, too. 18:04 Yes, I would. 18:05 Noah, would you take our box around 18:07 and let everyone put a gift in for Jesus. 18:09 I have a gift. I have right here. 18:13 Jesus does so many wonderful things for us. 18:16 And maybe if Mr. Danny Shelton comes to see us, 18:21 we could give him this to take and help other boys and girls 18:24 to learn about Jesus. 18:25 Jesus loves us. Yes. 18:27 Oh, no, I have something I want to give too. 18:30 I have some money, too. 18:33 Oh, well, you know, boys and girls, 18:36 Jesus is not a baby anymore. 18:39 He's up in heaven preparing homes for each one of you, 18:44 and soon He's going to come back to take us home. 18:47 And we'll get to see all the homes 18:48 He's prepared for us. 18:50 I can't wait. That's right. 18:51 Oh! 18:52 Oh, someone's at the door. 18:54 Miss Cinda, can you get our door? 18:55 Oh, I will. 18:56 Oh! 18:58 It's Danny Shelton! Danny! 19:00 Welcome! Thank you. 19:02 Hi, kids. Let me help you with your coat. 19:04 Thank you. It's cold out there, isn't it? 19:07 Who says it doesn't get cold in Southern Illinois. 19:10 Boy, it sure does. 19:12 Hi, kids. Hi! 19:14 Hi. 19:15 Is that okay for me to come in for a few minutes? 19:17 Yeah! Yes! 19:19 The reason I'm here is I just wanted to wish all of you 19:23 Tiny Tots, you do a such a great job over here. 19:27 I mean, you guys work hard to help other children 19:30 around the world. 19:32 And I want to wish you all a happy holiday. 19:33 Oh, thank you! You too, Grandpa Chuck. 19:35 Happy holiday. How are you doing? 19:37 Well, Mr. Danny, can you let us about 19:39 what's happening with some of the children 19:41 around the world? 19:42 Are they learning about Jesus? They are. 19:44 But, you know, if I can take a minute first. 19:46 I just want to say a special thank you to Miss Cinda 19:50 and Auntie Linda to all of you and all of the young people 19:53 because I stay home sometimes 19:55 and you know what I watch on 3ABN? 19:58 What? Don't tell. 19:59 Can we have a secret? 20:01 I watch Tiny Tots. 20:04 I love Tiny Tots. Really, I really do. 20:07 I love Tiny Tots. 20:09 It's a great program, 20:10 and I love the animals you bring. 20:12 I mean, even if they're donkeys or frogs or... 20:15 Of course, I heard we had little accident 20:17 with the frog once, but I won't get into that. 20:20 But I just want to say thank you to all of you kids 20:23 because I think our viewers at home, 20:25 they have no idea how hard these young people 20:28 work for Jesus. 20:30 They do work hard for Jesus. These are Tiny Tots for Jesus. 20:31 They are. 20:33 Because you are sharing your light. 20:34 It's like Jesus talks about a light. 20:37 If you had a light and say you put a basket over it, 20:40 you can't see the light. 20:41 But if you take the basket away, 20:44 all of a sudden you see the light. 20:46 Well, you... 20:47 Like you, Noah, Papa sees you all the time, 20:50 sees you lots of times. 20:52 And when you're just playing, that's wonderful, 20:54 but all of a sudden when you're doing Tiny Tots 20:57 and working for Jesus, your light just beams 21:00 and people see it around the world. 21:01 That's right. Do you why? 21:02 Because this television signal 21:04 goes literally around the world. 21:06 And I want to tell you about 21:08 some tiny tots around the world. 21:09 Now how many of you have a church you can go to? 21:12 Okay, do you have a pretty church 21:14 with a nice roof on it? 21:15 Did you know there are tiny tots 21:17 around the world that doesn't have 21:19 any church to go to? 21:21 They do not have a church to go to, but you know what, 21:24 people that have been supporting 3ABN, 21:28 and people like the McNeilus's and Farley's 21:31 and ASI and Maranatha. 21:33 And all of these people you see in 3ABN joining together, 21:37 we're building hundreds of churches around the world. 21:40 And tiny tots are having churches with roofs now. 21:44 Oh, that's wonderful! 21:45 And a lot of these tiny tots... 21:47 How many of you have a nice home? 21:50 Okay. Do you have parents? 21:52 Yes. Okay. 21:53 And you have a nice bed to sleep in? 21:55 Uh-huh. And you have clothes? 21:57 Uh-huh. Well, let me tell you a story. 21:59 There are places in the world and Papa's been there Noah, 22:03 I have been there, and you know what, 22:05 these children live in the streets all year round. 22:09 They don't have a mama, they don't have a daddy, 22:13 they don't have a papa, they don't... 22:16 They don't have anybody who really loves them. 22:19 You know about that, Grandpa Chuck, 22:21 you've seen these children. 22:22 But you know what, because of the people that love Jesus, 22:28 and that's what we're supposed to do, when we have Jesus, 22:30 we let our light shine. 22:32 We are now taking this, and I have seen hundreds 22:35 and even thousands of children 22:38 are being taken off the streets, 22:40 new orphanages, new houses built for them, 22:43 and they bring them in and give them new beds 22:45 and give them toys, 22:47 they give the little girls dolls 22:48 and the little boy's trucks. 22:50 And they're teaching them about Jesus all around the world. 22:54 And that's what we're supposed to do. 22:56 See, Jesus wants us to be Jesus to someone else. 23:00 Some little boys and girls may never see 23:03 the face of Jesus except in you. 23:06 And in you, Sylvia. 23:07 So when you are kind to other little boys and girls, 23:11 they see Jesus in you, they say, "She is so kind." 23:15 And, Caleb, when you treat people kind 23:18 and you treat them very nicely, they say, 23:20 "Oh, he must love Jesus." 23:23 And the Bible says, "When we lift the Jesus, 23:26 people will be drawn to Him." 23:28 That's right. And I think that is so neat. 23:30 But there are tiny tots around the world 23:32 who are less fortunate, they don't have what we have, 23:35 but all of us working together here at 3ABN 23:38 and working with all the other ministries 23:40 within this great Seventh-day Adventist church 23:43 are helping and reaching out, isn't that incredible? 23:45 That is awesome. That's amazing. 23:47 To thousands and thousands of young people around the world. 23:49 I know one lady, one lady, and you've seen her on 3ABN, 23:54 that in another country of the world, 23:57 she feeds 7,000 children every day. 24:00 My goodness! That's a lot of food! 24:02 Seven thousand children around the world 24:05 and because people like our viewers 24:07 from 3ABN support this kind of work. 24:10 Seven thousand children, and she puts them in homes, 24:13 and children that are blind, they don't even have... 24:16 They don't even have homes, and she takes 24:18 those orphan blind children, and she teaches them Braille 24:22 and how to read by using their hands. 24:26 And they give them a home, 24:27 and they teach them about Jesus, 24:30 and they give them new clothes. 24:31 Isn't that wonderful? Isn't that incredible? 24:33 Yes, it is. Wow! 24:35 And you know what, many of these children 24:38 watch you around the world. 24:40 Miss Cinda, they watch you. 24:41 When I travel around the world, I have been in places 24:44 like Russia, I've been in places like Germany, 24:47 I've been in places like New Guinea, 24:50 I've been to places all around this world, Romania, 24:54 if I didn't already say it. 24:55 And you know what, we can turn on the television sets 24:58 and watch Tiny Tots. 25:00 And we can watch Kids Time. And I'm amazed. 25:03 And you know what I do, I hate to say this 25:06 because I don't want everybody to hear it, 25:08 but sometimes when I see this on television 25:11 and I'm in some remote place of the world, 25:12 do you know what I do? 25:14 I cry. Oh! 25:18 I would, too. 25:19 And I say, "Thank You, Jesus." Amen. 25:21 Thank you, Jesus, because Tiny Tots 25:24 is teaching little children that Jesus loves... 25:28 I heard... 25:30 Was that you, Miss Linda, say a while ago, 25:31 that Jesus is no longer a little baby? 25:33 That's right. 25:35 But now, kids, He is King of kings and Lord of lords. 25:38 Amen. Amen. 25:40 Now isn't that incredible? Amen. 25:41 Now I won't talk anymore because I could talk 25:44 for hours and hours and hours stories 25:48 about tiny tots around the world, 25:50 but I just want to say a big thank you, and I want... 25:52 To all the tiny tots around the world, 25:54 god bless you and happy holidays 25:57 and know that Jesus loves you. 25:59 Thank you so much for coming today. 26:02 Oh, you're welcome. That meant a lot. 26:04 We loved it. I was happy to be here. 26:06 Noah, would you have a special prayer for us 26:09 and then afterwards Auntie Linda 26:10 will have a short prayer? 26:12 Let's just fold our hands and close our eyes, okay? 26:16 Can we fold our hands and close our eyes? 26:20 You pray, Noah?
