Looking Forward to Joy
Consider the question, “Who do you know that always seems to be full of joy?” Why do you think that is? What steps can you take, if you aren’t already, to be a person who lights up a room with the joy of Christ? What do you think is the significance of God choosing to first reveal Christ’s birth to shepherds? What hope does that detail inspire in you? Consider with gratitude the ways in which you have experienced joy and peace through Jesus. Since hearing and embracing the gospel for yourself, how excited have been about sharing it with others? With whom can you share the joy of salvation this Christmas season?
