DECEMBER 19 - DECEMBER 25
CHRISTMAS
Hey Lightgliders!
Read the passages below from the Bible as a family.
Read Luke 2:1-15
“Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others - the armies of heaven - praising God and saying, ‘Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.’” - Luke 2:13-14 (NLT)
Think about and discuss these questions:
• Why is Jesus’ birth important?
• How did the shepherds respond after they saw the angels praising God?
Read Luke 2:16-21
“After seeing him, the shepherds told everyone what had happened and what the angel has said to them about this child.” - Luke 2:17 (NLT)
Just like the shepherds, we are to share the good news of Christmas with others. Jesus is the reason for the season!
Merry Christmas!
