Christmas For The Rest Of Us

Christmas For The Rest Of Us - Shepheards

John Rittenhouse
This week, we continue exploring the Christmas story through the shepherds of Luke 2, revealing how God chose society’s outcasts. Not the powerful or religious to be the first witnesses of Jesus’ birth. Their story exposes God’s upside down value system, showing that the gospel is for all people, regardless of status, success, or worthiness. When we feel unqualified or ordinary, we are often exactly the people God uses to share the good news.

Christmas For The Rest Of Us

Luke opens up after 400 years of silence by God. Who would you think God would use to speak again? A prophet? An angel? While those are important characters, God actually uses a common man and his wife to begin the Gospel narrative.
