The Story of Simeon | Luke 2:25-35
We’ve been spending this Advent season looking at stories of some of the key people mentioned in the first two chapters of Luke’s Gospel. In doing so, we’ve considered how these stories that occurred thousands of years ago are more than artifacts of a distant age, but instead connect to our
own lives. In a very real way, their stories are our stories. So far, we have looked at the stories of Mary, Zechariah, and the shepherds. Today we’re looking at the story of an old man named Simeon and his encounter with Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.
