Does the Christmas story still fill you with awe?
God actually looked at our sinful, human plight and decided to do something about it. He came as one of us to do what none of us could do. Lately we've been covering the time of the exile, seeing that God didn't forget about his people even after they had been carried off because of their own rebellion. All of us have known the exile caused by sin. It separates us from God and leaves us helpless to our plight. The same God who cared for his people in the Old Testament exile has come to undo the banishment brought about by sin.
This Sunday our youth groups will be covering the birth of Jesus. Use the included discussion starter to help ensure your Christmas tradition includes talking about what the coming of Christ means.
