The Gospel of Luke: Week 2

The Woman Podcast is excited to launch a new teaching series through the Gospel of Luke. Our friends, Rebecca Shatswell and Heather Hoyt will be leading us through scripture and helping us better understand how to read God's word on our own. This week covers chapter one of the Gospel of Luke. To dig deeper into this study, you can use these discussion questions: 1. Who were Zechariah & Elizabeth & why were they significant?2. What did the angel Gabriel tell Zechariah? 3. How did Zechariah respond?4. What stands out to you most about Mary’s response to the angel? 5. How does it encourage you & why?6. Jump ahead and read Luke 22:41-42, then read Luke 1:38. Note the similarities & significance of their responses. How does this challenge you when it comes to trusting God?7. There were 400 years of silence from the Book of Malachi in the Old Testament, to Jesus’ arrival in Bethlehem in the New Testament. God is always working even if we can’t see it or feel it, and sometimes there’s no clear explanation for why God makes us wait. Write down something you are waiting on the Lord for & talk to Him about it. To prepare for next week, read chapters 3 & 4 of the Gospel of Luke.
