Welcome to the Party, Pal: God’s Plan for Your Mistakes

What Christmas song is most likely to get stuck in your head?

What stood out to you most from the message?

When was the last time you noticed something unideal about your family? What was your response?

Think about an area of your life where you’ve been holding on to your pride? What makes humility difficult there?

Read Matthew 1:18-21.

What are some things Joseph had to surrender? What did he have to embrace?

Think of a time when you chose to embrace vulnerability like John McClane and ask for forgiveness. What made you decide to say sorry?

What’s one step you can take this week to lay down your pride?

Let’s end our time praying together. You can say something like;

“Jesus, thank you for saving us. Guide us as we identify areas that we can be humble and vulnerable. And provide for us as we trust in you. Amen.”
