Scatter The Proud: A Listening Party Devotional
Luke 2
…God has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts, brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly.
Intro
As a part of this online devotional, youth were invited to share songs from their playlists that helped them think about Mary’s song in Luke in which the proud and powerful meet a God who holds a preferential place for the marginalized.
Questions
Why do you think Mary’s song speaks so specifically about power and privilege? How does her song comfort you or make you nervous?
What songs on your playlists make you think about power and privilege and justice and equity?
How might you live differently after hearing Mary’s song and the songs of your friends? How do they help you hear a call toward those on the margins of society?
