Discussion Questions

Three general questions for digging deeper:

  • What does this text teach us about God?
  • What does this text teach us about ourselves?
  • If this text is true, what should we do to obey this teaching?

Questions specific to the November 30 sermon from Luke 2:

  1. In what ways do you think it might have been hard for the early believers to take Jesus’ claims seriously, compared with those of Augustus?
  2. In what ways is it still hard to accept Jesus’ claims today?
  3. In what ways does Jesus’ style of leadership challenge and oppose the common style of leadership in the world?
  4. In what ways might you be getting called to follow the example set by Jesus and lay aside the example set by Augustus?
  5. What is making it hard for you right now to really believe that Jesus has brought peace and justice for all people? How can the group pray for you through that?
