A Well-Researched Christmas: What Child Is This? – Luke 2:8-38
The birth of Jesus was announced to humble shepherds, the first to hear the “good news of great joy” from the angels. Dr. John Neufeld reflects on why God chose these shepherds to witness the birth of the Savior. He explores the significance of Jesus as the “great shepherd” and the contrast between the imperial power of Caesar Augustus and the peaceful kingdom Jesus came to establish. Through the shepherds’ story, we see God’s eternal purpose unfolding in Jesus, the shepherd and sacrificial lamb for his people.
