Lesson Summary
It’s Week 3, and we’ve reached the main event. Jesus is born! God could have sent His Son to be born in the finest palace – but instead, Jesus was born in a place where the animals stayed with a manger as his bed. The birth announcement was pretty dramatic, though – because God sent brilliant angels to declare the news to a group of shepherds in the nearby fields. And once these shepherds saw the baby king, they couldn’t help shouting out the good news wherever they went. [BOTTOM LINE] Jesus is the greatest gift.
