“In Small Packages (part 3)” Luke 2:8-20 

Sometimes big things come in small packages! As we approach the Christmas season, we can see that this is God’s mode of operating in the Christmas story. The bottom rung of the 1st century economic ladder was the shepherd, and yet it is to shepherds that the announcement of God’s good news comes. It is easy to think that those who have more stuff/status are the more fortunate, but in this story, it is those who hear from God, respond to God and bear witness to God’s gift!
