#260 - Joby Martin // If Shepherds Made The Cut, So Do You Dec 30, 2025

• the Daily Blade mission to equip men for the fight
• Luke 2 focus after Christmas and why Christmas changes everything
• the true status of first‑century shepherds and why that matters
• angels announcing to the overlooked, not the elite
• Jesus choosing disciples who were not the best of the best
• the lie of condemnation versus Romans 8:1
• identity shaped by Jesus’ scars, not our past
• practical encouragement to surrender and step into purpose
