"Have You Ever Wondered, 'Why Shepherds?'" (Luke 2:8-20)

Rev. Dr. Marjorie E. NunesRev. Dr. Marjorie E. Nunes, December 24, 2019
Part of the Christmas Eve series, preached at a Advent service

Announcements are big things in our lives. There are many things in life we announce from a new job to having children. The more significant the announcement the more important it is to think through who gets notified first. The story of Jesus’ birth is short and includes a small cast of characters. Anyone involved plays a big role. On one level, the shepherds hear an announcement, find the baby, and go back to work. As far as we know it didn’t change their lives, they didn’t become disciples, and there is no record of them spreading the news beyond those present with Mary and Joseph.
