BACK TO THE MANGER
A Caroling Adventure through Time
Created by Christy Semsen
Arranged by Daniel Semsen
Introducing a Christmas children’s musical from husband and wife duo Christy and Daniel Semsen that is a blast-from-the-past to perform and delivers a life-changing message - Back to the Manger. During the annual Christmas Caroling Outreach at Midway Community Church, Jackson and his friends discover a time machine in the basement. After accidentally hitting a lever, they embark on an adventure throughout the twentieth century and learn how helping others changes lives. Seeing the caroling outreach effects over the decades, once-skeptical Jackson comes to know Christ better and discovers the true value of God’s gift and why we celebrate His birth.
