Our Shepherd Lutheran Church

That's your story too. In your baptism, the spirit came and gave you faith in Christ. In your baptism, the father said, this is my beloved son. This is my beloved daughter in whom I am well pleased. In our baptisms, we are brought back together with God and made his family. Isn't that incredible? So when you hear that story about Jesus, it's our story as well. Every single one of us, now sons and daughters. And therefore, brothers and sisters too. Right? We are family because of Jesus Christ.
