The Heart of Christmas
The Heart of Christmas is a story within a story. Ruth, a young girl who escapes World War II in Europe, finds a new home and family in America. She learns about Christmas for the first time as her new grandmother reads her a story—The Servant King, a family favorite passed down from generation to generation.

The Heart of Christmas will take you on a journey through time. Along the way, you’ll gain a new perspective on Jesus’ birth and life and discover how a simple gift can change your life forever. You’ll also enjoy the music and traditions of an American family Christmas that are a joy for all ages.
Location: Charis Bible College, 800 Gospel Truth Way, Woodland Park, CO 80863
