Shepherd’s Field — Where the Good Shepherd Speaks to His People

🎙️ Hosts: John & Bethany

In this second episode of our three-part Christmas series, we journey to Shepherd’s Field in Bethlehem, one of the most tender and theologically rich locations of the Nativity story.

Here—on the hills where angels first announced the birth of Jesus to humble shepherds—we explore why God chose this place and these people to reveal the Savior. Shepherd’s Field is more than a Christmas backdrop; it is sacred ground that unites Old Testament promise and New Testament fulfillment, connecting the fields of Boaz and Ruth, the calling of David the shepherd-king, and the birth of Jesus, the Good Shepherd.

📖 In this episode, we reflect on:

• Luke 2 and why the Good News came first to the lowly

• Bethlehem’s deep shepherding heritage

• God as Shepherd throughout Scripture (Psalm 23, Ezekiel 34, Isaiah 40)

• Jesus’ powerful declaration: “I am the Good Shepherd” (John 10)

• Why shepherd imagery reveals God’s tender, personal care

• What pilgrims experience today when visiting Shepherd’s Field

🕊️ You’ll also hear practical insights for pilgrims and travelers, including how Shepherd’s Field becomes a place for prayer, reflection, Scripture reading, and quiet encounters with God—whether during Christmas or any season of the year.

✨ This episode invites listeners to slow down, imagine the angelic announcement under Bethlehem’s night sky, and hear the Good Shepherd calling them by name—offering peace, guidance, and rest.

Join us as we stand where heaven once broke into earth and discover what Shepherd’s Field still whispers to the heart today.
