Take the first 5-7 minutes to get to know each other, introduce anyone who is new, and share:

- What’s one thing that genuinely made you smile or laugh this past week – big or small?

- If you could describe the kind of summer you want to have in one word, what would it be?

Access our Bible App event with Scriptures and message notes from the weekend.

1. Read Psalms 16:11. We don't have to create joy – we just get to become aware of the goodness of God that's already at work in our lives. What’s something good God is doing in your life right now that you want to celebrate?

2. You can often recognize a happy expression from a distance, but joy leaves an impression. What do you think people experience when they're around you?

3. Read Habakkuk 3:17-18. What does this show you about finding joy in God regardless of circumstances?

4. Read Psalms 43:4. Joseph, Abraham, and David weren't trying to find joy – they were seeking God, who is the source of joy. What is one way you can intentionally seek God this week and trust Him with everything else in your life?

May we enjoy God and the life He's giving us, in Jesus’ name.

This summer, we're practicing celebration – simply paying attention and calling attention to the goodness of God. Everything you need to get started is at valleycreek.org/60days!
