Take time with your family to discuss these questions (or variations of these questions) together, and reflect on this week’s truth and Word.

1. Question: Have you ever been punished for doing something wrong—and then done it again? Why do you think we do that? After God’s people returned from exile, did they fully obey God?
Takeaway: Even after the judgment of exile, God’s people did not obey God’s word.

2. Question: Since God’s people continued to disobey God, what did Malachi say would happen? What would happen if they turned back to God?
Takeaway: Malachi warned that the day of the Lord will mean judgment for those who don’t return to God—and salvation for those who do.

3. Question: What were some things we’ve seen in the Biggest Story so far that pointed to Jesus as the coming Savior?
Takeaway: The whole Old Testament gives us pictures to point us to Jesus, the promised Savior.
