The Shepherds of Christmas

Outreach, Inc.

This video is from “Holy Night,” the Christmas episode from the TV series, The Chosen, a series about the life of Jesus. You’re about to be introduced to the ‘shepherds of Christmas.’ And you’re about to be introduced to one shepherd in particular. We're not told much at all about the background of the shepherds of Christmas. This video illustration is an imaged scene. But, the creators of The Chosen did their homework. Because we do know it was hard out there for a shepherd at the time of Jesus. “That night, in a field near Bethlehem, shepherds were watching over their flocks.” (Luke 2:8, TPT) “When the choir of angels disappeared and returned to heaven, the shepherds said to one another, ‘Let’s go! Let’s hurry and find this Word who is born in Bethlehem and see for ourselves what the Lord has revealed to us.’” (Luke 2:15, TPT) “The shepherds returned to their flock, ecstatic over what had happened. They praised God and glorified him for all they had heard and seen for themselves, just like the angel had said.” (Luke 2:20, TPT)
