Questions for Life Groups
- Read Isaiah 9:2-7 and the article in this week’s Circuit Rider titled Hope. Begin by naming the ache honestly—acknowledging the ways we’ve settled for artificial comforts instead of seeking the real presence of God.
- This week, pay attention to recognizing when artificial solutions have numbed us rather than nourished us.

- How can your group members help you be more receptive to hearing and understanding the Word of God this week? Pray for one another to be blessed by the Holy Spirit with greater courage.
