After the Angels Sang
What Happened After the Angels Sang and the Shepherds Left?
What happened to Joseph, Mary, and Jesus after that night in the manger? How did their journey unfold after the shepherds left and the angels returned to heaven? Most Christmas stories end in Bethlehem, but today, Stephen Davey explores what came next. From Jesus' circumcision to His dedication at the Temple, Stephen reveals the remarkable moments of faith and obedience that defined Jesus' earliest days. You’ll discover how, even as a baby, Jesus was fully identified with the people of Israel, marking the beginning of His fulfillment of the Law and God's promises to Abraham.
Stephen also sheds light on the often-overlooked sacrifices made by Mary and Joseph. Despite scandal, rumors, and economic hardship, they chose obedience to God's commands at every turn. Their journey included paying the redemption tax at the Temple—a powerful irony given that the baby they presented was Himself the Redeemer of the world. This episode will open your eyes to the deeper, richer aspects of Jesus' story, reminding you that His mission started long before His ministry years. Join us to hear the inspiring faith of His earthly parents and how Jesus' earliest days set the tone for the greatest story ever told.
