Jesus invites you into a new and better way of life, but it's a paradoxical realm that turns human logic upside down. It's a life where sorrow leads to joy, brokenness to health, and suffering to glory. This devotion is an introduction to the Beatitudes that Jesus shared in His famous Sermon on the Mount. Come sit at His feet and learn Kingdom principles that can transform your life.

The world we are living in is transient and temporal. As believers, we are passengers in transit on Earth and our destination is our eternity with Christ. As such, how do we remember our identity as God’s holy people while navigating the fallen world we are in? Journey with us and learn how we can live differently, as people not of this world.

Christians often talk about their ‘calling’ as an assignment they have received from God, for example to go into missions. They want to serve the Lord by committing themselves to His Kingdom. Hearing this can make you wonder: What actually is my calling? What does God want me to do? This reading plan gives you answers from the Bible.

One of the best-known commandments in the Bible is to love your neighbor. Jesus even says this is the most important command, next to loving God. But who is our ‘neighbor’ and what does it mean to ‘love’ him? In this Reading Plan, we will read some of Jesus’ teachings and some real-life examples.

In “Triumph over Trials,” we will study the books of First and Second Peter. These letters remain as relevant today as when Peter first wrote them and provide an invaluable compass for navigating life in these challenging times.

Life is hard. The struggle IS real. While all of us experience seasons of blessing, we are broken people living in a broken world. The book of 1st Peter is candid about the struggles we face, but unapologetic about the hope and truth of Jesus. Walk through 1st Peter with this reading plan because the struggle is real! (We recommend using The Message (MSG) translation.)

The apostle Paul tells his readers, “We must suffer many things on our way into God’s kingdom” (Acts 14:22). Reading the book of Acts or hearing testimonies from Christians all over the world, these words are proven true. Believers face opposition and persecution. Maybe you experience affliction yourself. In this reading plan, we want to encourage you and to teach you how to handle affliction.

The season of Easter is widely celebrated by Christians around the world. The gospel of Luke gives us a detailed account of the events we remember at Easter: Jesus’ suffering, death, and resurrection. These events are at the heart of the Christian faith.

The Bible says, “What we see now is like a dim image in a mirror; then we shall see face-to-face” (1 Corinthians 13:12). In this series, Pastor Rick explains eternal realities and the choices you must make to determine your eternal destiny and how you should live on this side of eternity.

“God loves you, and He has a plan for your life.” This is a popular statement among Christians, and it is true. But God’s ways are not always easy! They may include suffering to transform us; we may go through deep valleys before reaching the heights of God’s promises. Joseph’s life story, as recorded in the book of Genesis, is a good example of this.

Do you feel overwhelmed, dissatisfied, and stuck in a rut? Wishing your day-to-day life could improve? God's Word is your guide to brighter days. During this 28-day reading plan, you will discover ways you can go from living just a good life to living the type of better life that God desires you to have.

Exclusion can be wounding. This was not a foreign concept to the audience of 1 Peter. As followers of Jesus, this book reshapes our understanding of what it means to live from the overflow of hope in Christ as we live as exiled people in an increasingly hostile society.
