Discussion Questions: (Luke 2:22-38)
1.) What stands out to you from the sermon?
2.) How are things like kids’ excitement about Christmas gifts similar and different from Christian hope and joy?
3.) Look at Luke 2:25-27. What does it mean to be filled with the Spirit?
4.) Why do you think people find it easier to medicate than meditate on Jesus when things are difficult?
5.) Why do some people get grumpy, and other people, like Anna, get soft and beautiful even when they experience hard things? (vs 36)
6.) What does it look like for Jesus followers to live in ‘holy discontent’ about the brokenness that is so obvious in the world?
