One of the well - known Christmas stories in the Bible is the story of the birth of Jesus. In the Gospel of Luke, it tells about Mary, a virgin, being visited by the angel Gabriel. Gabriel announced that she would conceive and bear a son, to be named Jesus. Joseph, her betrothed, was also visited by an angel in a dream, reassuring him to take Mary as his wife. Then, there was the journey to Bethlehem due to a census, and Jesus was born in a manger because there was no room at the inn. This story is central to the Christmas celebration as it commemorates the birth of the Savior.

The story of the prodigal son is very touching. A young man asked his father for his share of the inheritance and then went off and squandered it all in wild living. When he was at his lowest, he decided to return home. His father welcomed him back with open arms, symbolizing God's unconditional love and forgiveness for sinners.

The relationship between Ruth and Boaz is also considered a love story. Ruth's loyalty and Boaz's kindness led to their union. Another example could be the love between Solomon and the Shulamite woman described in the Song of Solomon.
