Passage: Luke 2:8-20 Speaker: Pastor Lukus Counterman Series: Advent (Past)
Speaker: Lukus Counterman - The Christmas season can be a dangerous time! No, I’m not referring to shopping at Wal-Mart, although you are taking your life into your hands when you go there during this time of year. I am talking about the Christmas story. There is a danger that we can hear it so often that it becomes too familiar. There is a danger that we will lose the significance of the message because we have heard it many times. We may know all the details, but if we are not careful, our familiarity with the Christmas story can cause us to overlook just how amazing the story really is. So, this morning, lets look at the story of the shepherds in Luke 2 and see it again for the first time. Let the tidings of great joy fill your heart, and the message of the gospel encourage your soul afresh.
