Speaker: Jason Williams

In this sermon from the fourth week of Advent, we explored Luke 2:15-21 and reflected on the first responses to the birth of Jesus— awe, treasure, and worship. The shepherds, amazed by the angel's message, hurried to Bethlehem to see the Savior. Their wonder overflowed into bold proclamation as they shared the good news with all who would listen. Mary, filled with awe and amazement, treasured this miracle in her heart, deeply reflecting on all that God had done. In this passage, we can see that even though the shepherds returned to their daily lives, they were forever changed; they went back glorifying and praising God for all they had seen and heard. In this brief yet profound portion of the nativity story, we discover the true meaning of Christmas: awe-filled wonder, treasured reflection, and passionate worship.
