We are all familiar with the stories of what happened at the first Christmas and Easter--or are we? The Crib, the Cross and the Crown strips away the wrapping-paper of tradition and folk-lore from the stories of the birth and death of Jesus Christ, and takes a fresh look at what the Gospels themselves say.

From Joseph's dilemma with his new young bride, to Herod's reckless slaughter of the innocents, you'll follow the unfolding of events as God brings His Own son into this material world. Here is a realistic drama of how the world's greatest adventure began, with motivated characters in a difficult ancient setting.
