Christina Aguilera: Christmas in Paris Christian Review
Nothing is quite like the Christmas music that comes through the old streets and candlelit halls — it has a way of pulling the heart to worship. The movie by the same name could not have captured more accurately the charm of the holidays with a series of live performances shot against the shimmering backdrop of Paris. While on the job, listening to the musical notes became less frequent, and catching the message of the carols in a worship manner became more. I kept seeing the words of the song in my head and they spoke louder than the music itself, “For unto us a Child is born” (Isaiah 9:6).
Besides Christina being able to sing powerfully and with deep conviction, she does so with a wide range of different kinds of songs. Scriptural themes are clearly evident in some of the traditional worship songs exemplified, and those are the moments that win the most. In these moments, the Christmas spirit is not just there but it is also genuine — the most festive of all and at the same time very reverent. The singing of the birth of Jesus as laced in the Bible, turns the people watching, to the one true reason of the season: Jesus Christ, God made man (Matthew 1:23).
The live concert experience is, however, a little short of the standard of holiday pageantry at certain times. The spiritual perspective softens when the attention is shifted to the extravagance and the performance rather than to worship. The movie doesn’t lose its biblical stance – it’s just that it becomes lesser focused. There are moments when Christmas is just about the atmosphere and not the Messiah.
Regardless, the production conforms to moral standards and is cheerful. The pictures are great and the words being said are good, hence, viewing the movie is a safe and fun thing to do for people of all ages. There isn’t any undesirable content in the movie — only the few times when the film is more inclined towards amusement rather than edification.
The movie brings out the best spiritually when Jesus’s role in the story is not overlooked. One of the ways it does is through reminding that music is not just music, it is the next level of artistry, and it becomes ministry if it leads people to God. As the Psalm 96:1 goes, “Sing to the Lord a new song.” This concert movie does just that to a great extent at its finest points.
Although not being a worship service per se, Christmas in Paris, in a subdued manner, supports the idea of praise — the perfect holiday watch that is capable of leading families softly away from themselves and back to the narrative that has changed the world forever.
