In 2016, Forest Hill Church set out to create a shareable Christmas video that served as a low-stakes invite to Christmas Eve service. The response to the video was overwhelming— over 20.5 million views across Facebook and Youtube when last counted. Every year since, the video has made the rounds on social channels and is a fun reminder how a simple idea executed well can go far.

We shared the video with countless organizations across the country and around the world. It gained enough traction that The Charlotte Observer wrote an article about it

The conception to completion of the video was a true collaborative effort, but Director (and main character!) Matt Nunn told the story in a way that delivered the warm Christmas fuzzies and hinted towards the deeper meaning of the season.
