Like A Child

Tied With Love Not Strings

December 17, 2023 • Jordan Hansen • Luke 18:15–17, Matthew 18:1–5

How should we receive the gift of Christmas? If we don’t get Christmas right…we will get Christianity wrong. Jesus is kind to us in order to restore relationship with us. He desires to genuinely bless us. But we cannot receive His kindness or blessings unless we receive them. That requires humility! And humility goes beyond receiving…but extending that same kindness to others.


TALK ABOUT IT - Questions to GROW through with family, friends, & myself. 

1. What is the most memorable Christmas gift anyone has ever given to me? Why was it special?

2. How does Jesus “get down to our level” in the Christmas story? Do can we respond with humility?

3. Who does God want me to invite to a Christmas Eve service so they can experience the kindness of Jesus?

4. What does God want me to give back to Him and to others this Christmas? Where can I invest kindness?

5. PRAYER: “Father, help us to receive the gift of Christmas this year like children!”
