Feast of the Presentation

Faith Lutheran Church

Each week, we provide questions based on last Sunday's sermon. These questions are to encourage you to connect the scriptures to your own life and to invite you to grow deeper in your relationships with others at Faith by discussing the questions together. Readings: Leviticus 12:1-8; Luke 2:22-38 Sermon: Our avoidance of death separates us from life, but Jesus embraces death to reintegrate us with life. Questions: 1) Do you tend to view scripture through a lens of suspicion or a lens of generosity? Do you view people through the same lens? 2) When have you been separated from your community foran extendedperiod? To what extent was the speratation helpful? To what extent was the separationharmful? How did you reintegrate? 3) Who is someone who has been separated from your community with whom you could connect with this week?
