We are invited to "ponder" with Mary the meaning of these things...
Discussion questions from the leaders guide:
1. What did God demonstrate in the choice of Mary to give birth to the Messiah? Recall that Mary was what we might call a "nobody from nowhere--that is she was a seemingly unremarkable person from a nondescript town.
2. Why didn't God choose a person of high rank from, say, Jerusalem? Recall other Biblical examples of people chosen to God's will. Which of these people were of high and noble rank, and which were ordinary and lowly?
3. What does the choice of people to do God's will in biblical times suggest about who is chosen in our day?
A simple girl, An ordinary man, An unforgettable destination! Join us as we share Adam Hamiliton's book and prepare our hearts to celebrate and receive the gift of Christ's Coming! Union Grove United Methodist Church 6407 Union Grove Church Road Hillsborough, NC 27278 (919) 967-1523
