Our Psalm of Ascents summer series is nearing its end and Psalm 133 will give us some family advice. As the people of Israel get ready to set their feet within the walls of Jerusalem, our Heavenly Parent gives us a reminder about what it means to be at a large family gathering. Like a parent speaking to their children as they walk up the steps to Grandma's house, so God has a message for us. This message serves us well as disciples of Jesus on a journey who are part of a Christian family called the Church. The following discussion questions will be valuable in reflecting deeper upon Psalm 133 and its meaning to your life.

1. Are there parts of your life, relationships, or situations that feel more like dis-unity than unity right now?

2. As you reflect on dis-unity and unity as a follower of Jesus, what wisdom does Jesus or something in the New Testament say about this topic?

3. Pastor Rob recommended several insights to bring to 'dis-unity' that exists in your life. What were those, how do they apply to you, and what further life wisdom can help you live out the call of Psalm 133.
