Is the image you see when you picture the Nativity all wrong? When you picture the Nativity, do you see a stable under a star where Mary, Joseph, three Magi, and some shepherds are all gathered around a manger that holds baby Jesus because there was no room in the inn?

In this video, we'll walk you through five of the most common misconceptions surrounding the Nativity and explain some of how we came to have the Nativity scene we have become so used to.
