The studio and filmmakers have worked hard to ensure that the The Nativity Story is both historically and biblically accurate: There are many Christians involved with the film, such as screenwriter Mike Rich and producer Wyck Godfrey, and a wide spectrum of Christian New Testament scholars and historians has been involved in the pre-production process. Additionally, New Line Cinema brought some influential evangelical leaders to the set, including Anne Graham Lotz and Frank Wright, president of the NRB. Both leaders also read the script; here is what they had to say:

"From what I have observed, THE NATIVITY STORY is Biblically accurate, historically authentic and visually stunning. Written with heart, directed with sensitivity, produced with excellence and performed with artistic grace, it is destined to become a beloved, cherished classic." – Anne Graham Lotz, AnGeL Ministries

"THE NATIVITY STORY is a biblically faithful and artistically superb expression of the most momentous event in human history – when God became a man. For a generation of movie-goers unfamiliar with this truth and its implications for their lives, this magnificent film may well be transformational." – Frank Wright, Ph. D. , President & CEO, National Religious Broadcasters For more information concerning this very promising production, go to the website: http://www.thenativitystory.com.
