Here’s the Christmas message: The shepherds believed and their belief resulted in action. They immediately departed for Bethlehem. The Bible says they “found their way to Mary and Joseph, and the baby as He lay in the manger.” They also proclaimed the good news to others as the first Christian evangelists when they told others what was told them about the Child. And then they worshipped. Luke 2:20, “The shepherds went back, glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard and seen, just as had been told them.”
