Scripture teaches us that the "message declared by angels proved to be reliable" (Heb. 2:2). No wonder the traditional Christmas carol instructs us to "hark" -- pay attention to -- what the angels are declaring. There's no better way to celebrate a time-honored hymn like "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" than by adding the fun Celtic version by We Are Messengers to your playlist.
Let's follow the call to action in our song and pay attention to what Scripture teaches us in Luke's narrative of Christ's birth.

In this episode, I discuss the following:

  • Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture – this week's Bible Interaction Tool Exercises include:
    • Read in context
    • Slow down
    • Repetition
    • Listen to an audio of the text
    • Make observations
    • Make a list
    • Share with a friend
  • Episode Guide
  • Catch me on my podcast book tour! Click here and scroll to the bottom to see all the podcasts/interviews I've completed and those yet to come. And take advantage of the freebies, too!
  • Building biblical literacy
  • Reading Luke's narrative of the birth of Christ - Luke 1-2
  • Observing that angel(s) are mentioned 14 times in two chapters
  • Making a list of what we learn about angels in these chapters
  • Allowing Scripture to change the way we think about things we may have pictured wrong for years
  • Recognizing shared language with Psalm 23, as we learned in Episode 504
  • Comparing the declaration of the angels in Luke 2:13-16 to what we learned from studying worship responses in Revelation as inspired by Episode 499
  • Heading over to Hebrews 1-2 to make another list of what we learn about angels and comparing to our list from Luke 1-2
    • Hebrews 1:4
    • Hebrews 1:5
    • Hebrews 1:6
    • Hebrews 1:7
    • Hebrews 1:14
    • and more
  • Looking a little closer at what Scripture says about angels and what it DOESN'T say

This Week's Challenge

Take this as your call to read the birth of Jesus narrative as recorded by Luke. The second (or third, or fourth) time you read through Luke 1 and 2, watch for what you learn about angels by what is shown and said in the text. Make a list of what you learn about angels. Then, head over to Hebrews 1 and 2 and compare your list to what you learn there. You’ll uncover additions to your list. And while you may not be in danger of worshipping angels, you will now know what the Bible actually says about these important — and very real — beings.
