The Most Uncomfortably Charming Christmas Movie Ever

Karl and Crew ·

2024/12/03

While the movie "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" is not necessarily preachy in nature Paul Asay with Plugged In describes it well as a sweet-spirited Christmas classic. Paul wants you to know this film does something that Jesus did back in the day: It calls out the most pharisaical among us. It reminds us, uncomfortably perhaps, that the very people we tend to avoid are exactly the people we should embrace; especially during the Christmas season.
