Pastor Roger Gilbert teaches from Luke 2:8-20, detailing the angelic announcement of Jesus's birth to the shepherds. Despite their lowly status, the shepherds received the news with awe and immediately went to Bethlehem to witness the birth of the Savior, showing an exemplary response to God's message. Pastor Roger shares the significance of the shepherds’ reaction, the divine timing of Jesus's birth, and the importance of individual response to the divine message. Examples from history, such as Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and modern missions highlight the theme of living out one's faith actively, akin to the shepherds and their immediate action upon hearing the good news.
