Would you like to include a Nativity scene are part of your Christmas decorations? Nativity scenes are inspired by the accounts of the birth of Jesus as described in the gospels of Matthew and Luke. Nowadays, many modern representations go well beyond the traditional small wooden carving, placed somewhere in the home. Today, nativity scenes are staged worldwide, sometimes with highly carved sculptures representing the people involved, and sometimes they are staged with real people and animals. Nativity scenes with sculptured figurines can become quite elaborate, with life-sized statues, and even imported sand and palm trees. ?Extras? are sometimes included according to local tradition, such as Adam and Eve, or Noah and some of his animals from the Ark. Living Nativity scenes can likewise expand well beyond the simple scene in the manger. Some US churches, for example, stage drive-through Nativities,with a series of elaborate scenes, and actors depicting different Christian themes, as well as the actual manger scene itself.
