  3. JOURNEY When Jesus was born he was visited by the rich and the poor: he was God for everyone. Mary and Joseph were patient, kind, and faithful. Jesus was Jewish. • We are the sum of all of our life experiences; everything that we do (positively or negatively) teaches us how to think, feel, and behave in the future. • Jesus’ was no exception: how and where he was born, the parents who raised him, the community in which he grew up all had a dramatic impact on who he was.

  5. JOURNEY • We can take physical journeys but we can also take journeys in life. • One type of journey is “Religious Journey;” think of Jesus’ nativity: • Mary journeyed to see her cousin Elizabeth • Mary and Joseph journeyed to Bethlehem • The Wise Men journeyed from the East • The Shepherds journeyed from their fields • The Holy Family journeyed to Egypt

  6. JOURNEY Religious Trip Religious Journey • Religion is finding answers to textbook questions. • Religion gives students answers, facts, questions with definite answers. • Religion involves learning the expected, the predictable. • Religion is asking, “What am I supposed to believe?” • Religious language is technical language about God. • Religion is discovering open questions which need life answers (answers which we discover by experiencing them). • … a life-long search, with open-ended questions. • … waiting on the unexpected experiences • … allowing ourselves to look at life with a new, fresh perspective. • … learning from stories about how God has been shared by people

  7. JOURNEY • As a class, let us read a story: “The Station.” • Work with a partner and respond to the following questions in your notes: • What does the station represent? • How does this story refer to the journey theme? • What are the next “stations” in your life? • Do you take the time to enjoy your life’s journey between your “stations”? How? • What wisdom does this story offer you about your goals? What do you need to change or continue to do?

  8. JOURNEY • Consider your own journey thus far:
