“Rejoice in the Lord always, again, I say rejoice. For the Lord is near.” -Phil 4:4-5

We are invited to receive who He is not just what he gives.

Discussion Questions:

  • What is something you want this Christmas season, that would bring you (more) joy?
  • What is one word to describe what you receive from living out your relationship with Jesus? (i.e. identity, purpose, forgiveness)
  • Do you ever have a hard time believing that Jesus wants to fulfill every desire of your heart? Why or why not?
  • Closing Prayer: take a moment to pray a prayer of Thanksgiving in advance for the ways that Jesus will move in your heart this Christmas season.
