SCRIPTURE: Isaiah 9:1-7; John 14:27; Colossians 1:19-20, Philippians 4:5-7, Matthew 5:9

Q1 — Start by reading Psalm 23 again. What lines speaks to you the most?

Q2 — What is causing your lack of peace today? Spend time in prayer as a group over these answers.

Q3 — In what ways do you nd yourself settling for the lie that peace is a circumstance and not a person?

Q4 — What are the areas or things in your life that you have been spiritually bypassing? What are the things the Lord might want to confront in you?

CHALLENGE: Choose to make peace with others around you. Who do you need to potentially schedule a conversation this advent with to make an honest attempt to create real peace (with honest confession, repentance, forgiveness, and reconciliation) in Jesus instead of settling for keeping a false peace.
