Icebreaker:
What rules do you have in your home?
What rules do you have for your car?
How do you feel about rules?

Scripture:
John 14:1-7

Lesson:
None of us like rules; yet, without rules we can never know right.  God did not create laws to punish His people.  He gave them laws to teach them to have peace and know Him.  Why is Jesus the Only Way to God?  Because He is God but also human, like us.  Real Christians know The Way!

How do you feel about doctrine?

I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS: Tough Love

Icebreaker: What is your favorite Christmas movie? What is your favorite Christmas movie quote? Overview: In the Christmas classic, “It’s a Wonderful Life,” angel Clarence Odbody is forced to lovingly deliver some tough love when George wishes he had never been born. Clarence grants his wish lamenting that there must be an easier way to get his wings.
