“Today was one of those days that stays with you. Not because it was easy, but because it was holy. We showcased the movie Why the Nativity? in Chanda Singh Village, Kasur, a remote community where many families survive through hard labor at brick kilns... The screening of the film became more than just a movie showing. It turned into a sacred moment.”

Igbo Airing in Nigeria
“For the Igbo people, the Nativity reminds them of the Wise Men that willingly gave to the King. Yesterday was an amazing opportunity to see it dramatized. The concept of having a dark skinned person among the Wise Men was so powerful….when the kings of the East were revealed, the black man could have passed for an Igbo man…the dressing and the body language is just so Igbo.”
1,000 seats filled plus overflow outside
Ten Igbo Clans in the diaspora came to church
After the movie, a massive amount of people rededicated their life to Christ.
It was glorious!
Hindi Airing in Pakistan
Today was one of those days that stays with you. Not because it was easy, but because it was holy.
As part of the global evangelistic outreach of Reach the World Day, we showcased the movie Why the Nativity? in Chanda Singh Village, Kasur, a remote community where many families survive through hard labor at brick kilns. Reaching this village required significant travel. We journeyed far from our homes, navigating long distances, rough paths, and muddy roads that reminded us just how forgotten these communities often are. The road was difficult, but the calling was clear.
These families live and work under harsh conditions. Their days are filled with physical exhaustion, economic pressure, and limited access to education or spiritual resources. Yet when we arrived, we were met not with resistance, but with open hearts, curious eyes, and quiet hope.
The screening of the film became more than just a movie showing. It turned into a sacred moment. As the story of Jesus Christ unfolded, people listened attentively. For many, this was their first time hearing the Gospel presented in such a clear, respectful, and meaningful way. The message of the birth of Christ, God entering human suffering, resonated deeply with people whose lives are marked by struggle.

Spanish Airing in Argentina
Our Spanish viewing of Why the Nativity? was held in one of the country’s most iconic locations…the Obelisco. The event included Christmas carols by a church choir and a worship time after the movie. More than 350 people gathered to watch and they were deeply moved by the message.
From Cindy Chen, Turning Point International Multimedia Producer:
“It was incredibly impactful to hear God’s Word resounding powerfully and loud through large speakers in the heart of Buenos Aires. After the film finished, I witnessed viewers praying for many of the unwitting audiences that were attracted by this public screening. Even two policemen prayed with our staff. Jesus Christ indeed is the reason for Christmas, and His nativity is the gift that changed the destiny of humankind!”
