Nativity

The Shepherds At The Birth Of Jesus

December 24, 2025December 23, 2025 by Mike Grawvunder
An angel appearing to shepherds at night as they watch their sheep near Bethlehem, inspired by Luke chapter 2.

On the night Jesus was born, God chose shepherds—ordinary men on a hillside—to hear the greatest announcement in history. This Christmas reflection explores why God chose them, what the manger truly means, and how the birth of Christ points forward to the cross.
