Being A Christmas Misfit
If you had the chance to design a reindeer game, what would you create?
What stood out to you most from the message?
In what ways have you experienced rejection in your life?
How do you typically respond to the thoughts and feelings that come with rejection?
In what ways do you find yourself taking on the identity of a misfit? How does that identity shape your actions?
How do you believe God sees you?
Read 1 Peter 2:9-10. What makes it difficult to believe you are chosen by God?
What are some unique gifts, talents, or characteristics that you bring to your family or friends?
What’s one way you can live into your identity as a child of God this week?
Let’s end with prayer. You can say something like, “God, thank you for including us. Thank you for adopting us. Help us embrace the unique ways you’ve designed us. Help us receive your love. Amen.”
Everyone knows what it's like to be an outsider. Like a reindeer left out of reindeer games! It hurts. But if you let Him, God can redeem those moments. Come discover the redemptive power of Christmas.
