Mary, Baby Jesus, Joseph just outside of Bethlehem
A Christmas Short Film directed & produced by Josh Probus. Special FX by CLLCTV, Larry Lundstrom.

What if the most powerful moment in history didn’t arrive with noise… but with obedience, humility, and hope?

In this short 6-minute message, you’ll walk through the true Christmas story from Luke’s Gospel—from Mary’s unexpected calling to a Savior born not in a palace, but in a manger.

This is the story of a promise kept.
A God who enters the ordinary.
A Savior sent for everyone.

Through the angel’s announcement, Mary’s faith, the journey to Bethlehem, and the shepherds’ encounter with glory, this message reminds us why Christmas still matters: God stepped into our world to rescue it.

No hype.
No distractions.
Just the Gospel—clear, hopeful, and real.

Watch and remember why His name is Jesus. If you’d like to use this in your Christmas Services or to share with your congregation on Christmas Day you can download the mp4 on the resources store.

BTS footage of the shoot day in the Arkansas Hill Country. And the after editing is complete. Our shepherd’s were good sports. And we only lost one sheep in those hills! But Josh and Zack caught him. Thankfully, I was able to return him to the El Paso Cowboy Church.
