Join us at Highlands Baptist Church for the second Sunday of Advent as we explore the radical inclusion of Christ’s message. In this sermon, we discover why God chose to announce Jesus’s birth first to the shepherds—society’s most marginalized and rejected people.

Through scenes from “The Chosen: Holy Night,” we examine:

The social rejection of shepherds in first-century culture

The spiritual shame weaponized against the forgotten

God’s stunning declaration: “For all the people”

If you’ve felt dismissed, unworthy, or too far gone—this message is for you.

This sermon invites you to:

Identify where you feel like a shepherd in your own life

Listen for God’s personal announcement of His grace

Accept your invitation to encounter Jesus

Whether you’re struggling with shame, rejection, or unworthiness, discover how the Prince of Peace came first for those the world had written off—and that includes you.

Perfect for Advent reflection and season of peace.
