  • Day 1: Finding Shelter in the Christmas Story

    From Jesus' birth in a manger to today's housing crisis, discover how the Christmas story provides a radical framework for understanding housing justice. Challenge your perspective on shelter, community responsibility, and what it means when God chooses to enter human homelessness.

    Scripture Focus:

    • Luke 2:7 - "No room in the inn"
    • Isaiah 58:7 - Provide shelter for the homeless
    • Matthew 8:20 - Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head

    Key Points:

    • Jesus' birth story centers housing insecurity
    • God consistently emphasizes shelter as a basic right
    • Community responsibility in housing justice
    • Systems that create housing scarcity

    Questions to Consider:

    • Why did God choose a housing crisis for Jesus' birth?
    • What does "no room" mean in our communities today?
    • How does stable housing reflect divine dignity?
