Why Did God Choose The Shepherds? Series

Contributed by Alan Perkins on Dec 11, 2025

Time and time again in the Scriptures, we see that God chooses the most unlikely candidates to serve him - David the shepherd to be king, fishermen to be apostles, and in this passage, the lowly shepherds to be the first to meet the newborn Christ child. Why?

One of the things I enjoy most about Biblical narrative—that is, the historical accounts in the Old and New Testament—is how often God does something completely unexpected.

The one necessary ingredient for effective service before the Lord is power. This is what few contemporary Christians have, perhaps because they are uncertain what they should look for.
