Discussion Questions
As you listen to the audio, keep these questions in mind.
- Do the experiences of Joseph and Mary returning to Nazareth resonate with me? Why or why not?
 - Reflect on a time when you had to do some serious rebuilding in your life. What most helped you in that time period?
 - What can Joseph teach me about dealing with gossip and the negative opinions of others?
 - Do I gossip or contribute to making the life of others more difficult? What does the Lord want me to change my behavior and attitude towards my neighbor?
 - Reflect on the times when you stood up to gossip and defended the dignity of another. How did you feel and how do you think the Lord felt upon seeing you choose virtue over vice?
 - What lessons can I learn from Jesus’ obedience to Mary and Joseph?
