The Shepherds Report, Part 2

The Christmas story is a call to salvation, it is a call to believe, it is a call to worship. And it is with the concept of worship that we pick up the story today as we find the shepherds in the presence of the holy child. And as they share their encounter with the angel of the Lord, we come to see two possible reactions when confronted with the reality of who Jesus Christ is, one of genuine faith and joy-filled worship, and one of professing wonder that does not, however, actually equate to real faith.
