A young virgin teenager is visited by a super-angel and told she's gonna be a baby-mama. Next minute, she's preggers. Her child is Jesus and He's gonna change the whole ball-game. Her fiancé finds out, but is super-chill because an angel shows up in his dream and tells him God's got this! 9 months later, they can't find a decent motel to give birth, so they crash in a one-star manger. Shepherds and wise men bring gifts. Herod gets mad and kills lots of babies. God protects and sends the couple off to Egypt. Herod dies an ugly death. Happy couple returns to Nazareth and do their best to live happily ever after.
I probably missed a few details, but you get the gist.
You know what I was thinking this year, though? I was wondering how this advent narrative would have unfolded if Joseph and Mary had access to social media? What would their Facebook and hashtag-infused conversations have sounded like?
Wonder no more!
I present you the Christmas story, as it unfolded on Facebook!
And there you have it!
Merry Christmas everyone! :)
