#396: What Did a Shepherd Boy Find That Proves the Christmas Story? - Advent 1

from Kids Bible Stories · host Jessica White

Isaiah 7:13-14 and 9:6-7  Welcome to our very first Christmas episode of 2025! Whether you’re a long-time listener or brand-new, we’re so glad you’re here. Today we begin Advent, a special four-week season where Christians prepare their hearts to celebrate Jesus’ birth and look forward to His promised return. We’ll explore what “Advent” means, why it’s important, and how this season invites us to slow down, reflect, and wait with hope. We’ll also hear an incredible true story from 1947—when a young shepherd boy discovered the Dead Sea Scrolls, some of the oldest copies of the Bible ever found. Among them was the Book of Isaiah, matching what we read today almost word for word. This amazing discovery reminds us that God’s Word has been faithfully preserved for thousands of years and that we can trust His promises. Through Isaiah’s ancient prophecies, we’ll see how God foretold the coming of Jesus long before He was born—and how Advent helps us celebrate that promise fulfilled.
