As the High School Bible Teacher at Quisqueya Christian
School, I have the privilege of speaking at chapel every now and then. This
past Wednesday I had the opportunity to teach on the meaning of Christmas
through Luke 2:1-21, focusing on Luke 2:8. In exploring why God would send
angels as messengers to shepherds in their fields, we see that God has a
shepherd’s heart. Christmas is about Jesus leaving home and living among us,
His sheep, and laying His life down for us, so that we might have His life.
Jesus is our Good Shepherd and Great King.
