5.How does Jeremiah 33:16 encourage you by reminding you that it is God who saves and provides?

6. Is your life marked by contentment in places where God desires for you to have a holy discontent? How so?

7.How does remembering the bad news of Christmas, help you to marvel at the good news of Christ’s birth?

8. Do you find yourself settling for the facts of Christmas, or letting the earth-shattering reality of the Christmas invasion birth in you a holy discontent that causes you to fall more in love with your Savior?
