11.27.21 - Hope (Kenny Camacho)
SCRIPTURE: Psalm 25:1-10
REFLECTION/DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
How would you define “hope”?
Our theme for 2021 has been Permission to Hope. Have you learned something about hope over the course of this year you can share?
Kenny’s big point this week was that the reason we often miss what God is doing is because our sights are set on what we would do rather than the kinds of things God does: our imagination is too small, and we are “looking for socks" instead of the good and amazing gifts God gives. How does this point resonate with you?
The key to recognizing what God is doing is to remember that the miracle of Christmas is God’s intimacy: God loves us in ways that will always be surprisingly personal and profound. Do you expect God to love you intimately? Why is this hard for us to remember sometimes?
What are you “hoping” for this year?
