We are in our final week of Avoiding Grinchmas - a series to help you experience the joy that’s possible through God during the Christmas season, and share and invite others to experience it too.
Carve out some time today, to further explore some of the key points of the message using the discussion questions below. Discuss with a friend or your group, or simply take some personal time to journal your answers and consider what God is trying to teach you this week.
Discussion Questions:
- Icebreaker: What is your favorite Christmas tradition and why?
- What do you notice when a "Scrooge-y" person enters the room? How do they treat others as problems?
- Read Mark 6:30-31. What do you learn about being a life-giving presence from these verses? What are some ways to refresh and "fill your tank" so you can share joy?
- Which way of sharing joy resonated with you: being a life-giving presence, using life-giving words, or offering life-giving service?
- What is one thing you can do this week to change our world by sharing your joy?
