In our Christmas Countdown Book, Day 1 focuses on Jesus Christ. See what art, scripture, song, video, and ornament we used to help us remember Christ.

I have linked to all the resources to help you design your own Christmas Countdown book. You can follow all the links each day, or simply print the pages for free from these websites, for your own personal use.
Day 1: Jesus Christ
Start using your Christmas Countdown Book on December 1st. There will be a different subject for each day until Christmas Day, December 25th. The purpose of this Christmas Countdown Book is to help you remember and focus on Jesus Christ during the Christmas season!
Picture
This is a great picture to include in your binder. I purchased the Gospel Art Book and included the Heinrich Hofmann picture of Christ in our binder. It is one of my favorite pieces of art of the Savior, but didn’t want to get in trouble posting it here because of copyrights!
Scripture
The first and last paragraphs of The Living Christ: The Testimony of the Apostles.
“As we commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ two millennia ago, we offer our testimony of the reality of His matchless life and the infinite virtue of His great atoning sacrifice. None other has had so profound an influence upon all who have lived and will yet live upon the earth.
We bear testimony, as His duly ordained Apostles—that Jesus is the Living Christ, the immortal Son of God. He is the great King Immanuel, who stands today on the right hand of His Father. He is the light, the life, and the hope of the world. His way is the path that leads to happiness in this life and eternal life in the world to come. God be thanked for the matchless gift of His divine Son.”

I filled clear plastic ornaments with tinsel and printed this picture in a small size to fit inside.
