Can you think of a moment in your life that, looking back, feels like a kairos moment—even if it didn’t feel dramatic at the time?
Does thinking about the limits of time feel motivating, unsettling, hopeful, or something else for you? Why?
How would you explain the difference between chronos and kairos time in your own words? Why do you think Scripture makes room for both ways of understanding time?
Which kind of time tends to dominate your life right now—chronos (the tick-tick-tick of schedules and deadlines) or kairos (attentiveness to God’s opportunities)? What makes you answer that way?
Scripture repeatedly emphasizes “from generation to generation.” Why do you think God is so focused on long-term faithfulness rather than immediate results?
The message expands the idea of “family” beyond biology. How does
Acts 2 reshape what spiritual family and shared legacy look like?
John 1:12 frames belief as “receiving” and “trusting.” How is that different from simply agreeing with ideas about Jesus?
What is one small concrete action you can take this week to "redeem time"?

Check the calendar and consider a next step for yourself as we begin the new year.
God, thank you for the gift of time. Teach us to number our days so we may live wisely.
Help us notice the moments where You are at work, and give us courage to respond when You invite us to act. Shape our lives into something that honors You and leaves a legacy of faith, love, and hope. We trust You with our time and our future.
Amen.
