Although you no longer have 3 more weeks to do a Christmas lesson series with your youth group, you could tuck this away for next year, cram it in this year, or even continue to talk about Christ’s birth after Christmas (imagine that!).

This freebie from Interlinc includes a couple articles and three free Christmas youth group lesson plans.

• Article: The Humbling Starts Here
• Article: A Righteous Dude
• Article: Really, A Virgin?
• Session One: Unplanned Pregnancies
• Session Two: A Trip At The Worst Time
• Session Three: A Child Is Born

View and download the Nativity 3-Session Resource Guide

As a bonus, here’s a PDF quiz of Christmas carols that is print-ready for 8.5×11 paper and produces two quizes per page. The answer sheet is printable as well. We used it with our youth group last week and had a lot of fun with it!
