God’s presence often appears most clearly in unexpected places—in crises, quiet moments, and ordinary circumstances.
THE SONG OF THE ANGELS — JOY DECLARED (vv. 13–14)
The gospel brings joy because it announces what we could never earn.
THE SHEPHERDS GO AND TELL — JOY LEADS TO SHARING (vv.15-20)
Joy is contagious—when God changes us, we naturally share the good news.
