    “The First Christmas Rush” Luke 2:8-20 Introduction Several weeks ago as the family and I were putting up the Christmas tree, I began wondering where did this all comes from?

    God’s choice of the lowly shepherds, as those to whom the announcement of Christ’s birth came, shows that his love is available to all on the same basis -- faith.
