"The Real Face of Jesus... " Popular Mechanics Magazine This is the question that the Gospels try to answer – Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. As a church we have started each year reading through a Gospel. This year we are reading Luke. The hope is that when you hear the Good News you will be filled with Joy and share it with all people.
“When the shepherds saw Jesus, they made known what had been told them about this child; and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them.” Luke 2:17-18
Have you made known what you have been told about this child? Were the people who heard it amazed by what you told them?
