Sharing Shepherds: Luke 2:8-20

How fearful are you about speaking in public? Sharing your faith?

The M ___________________
2:8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.
Who were these Shepherds?
Where were they, and what were they doing?
When do you feel too insignificant to be used by God? Why?
The M ___________________
9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”
What would it have been like to see these angels?
What were the messages of the angels?
What is God’s message for you today?
The M ___________________
15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” 16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
How did the shepherds respond to this angelic message?
What were the results of their obedience?
Challenge: Who will you tell about Jesus this Christmas season? How?
Thank you for watching. We hope that you were encouraged by what you heard!
