The Shepherds: Glory Breaks Through

When heaven’s glory burst into the world to announce the arrival of the King, God didn’t send angels to Jerusalem’s temple courts or Herod’s palace. He sent them to a field outside Bethlehem—to shepherds.

This Sunday we’re exploring Luke 2:8-20 and discovering why God delights to break glory into overlooked places. The shepherds weren’t religious elites. They weren’t scholars. They were blue-collar workers outside the circles of power. Yet they became the first witnesses of the incarnation.
