- 1. The Nativity Story is the tale of the birth of Jesus Christ, as recounted in the Bible. It begins with the Annunciation, when the angel Gabriel appears to the Virgin Mary to inform her that she will conceive a child by the Holy Spirit. Mary and her husband Joseph travel to Bethlehem, where Jesus is born in a manger because there is no room in the inn. Angels announce the birth to shepherds in the fields, who come to worship the newborn king. Wise men from the East follow a star to find the baby Jesus, bringing gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. The Nativity Story is a central part of the Christian faith and is celebrated each year at Christmas.
