Matthew 1:23

Luke 2:22-40

1. Knowing Jesus changes everything (25‑32).

• Jesus is the most significant figure in all of history (25‑28).
• Therefore, knowing Jesus is enough for a complete life (29‑31).
• And it is possible for anybody to come to know Jesus (32).

Action: Ask yourself, "Have I met Jesus?"
2. But truly knowing Jesus will demand both joy and sorrow (33‑35).

• The fact that the most significant figure in all of history is knowable by every individual is marvelous (33‑34).
• However, we must understand that Jesus is more than just a significant figure (35a).
• Jesus is the one who brings us face‑to‑face with the consequences of sin (35b).

Action: Ask yourself, "Have I properly dealt with the hard parts of Jesus?"
3. We should go about life seeking to know Jesus more and more (36‑40).

• Anna reminds us that Jesus is the answer no matter your stage of life (36‑38).
• Mary and Joseph remind us that even though Jesus changes everything, life still has a natural rhythm (39).
• Jesus himself reminds us that the natural course of life is one of growth (40).

Action: Ask yourself, "What is the next step that I am supposed to take?"
