Charlie Brown once asked, “Isn’t there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?” And Linus, in one of the most iconic moments in Christmas TV special history, stepped forward and recited Luke 2.

Today we look at a portion of that same passage, Luke 2:10-12, where the angel announces good news of great joy for all people. We’ll explore why shepherds were chosen to hear the message first, what “a Savior has been born to you” reveals about our deepest need, and why the humility of the manger is the exact sign God wanted us to see.

Whether you’re overwhelmed, weary, or longing for clarity this Christmas, this episode points you back to the simple, beautiful truth Linus spoke: A Savior has come — for you.Includes a practical memory tip to help you memorize this passage with confidence and joy.
