Journey through the Gospel of Matthew with this 30-day Bible Plan—including a devotional to help you grow in faith. This Gospel is written by Matthew to prove that Jesus is the Messiah, the eternal King. Sign up and let God’s Word transform your heart.

Jesus is the greatest storyteller of all time. His parables invite us into the larger narrative God has been writing since the beginning. Like a beautiful song or a piece of art that stirs something deep within, these stories capture our imaginations and move our hearts. Through His parables Jesus reveals the character of God, the mission of His Kingdom, and the power of His truth to transform our hearts and to invite us to join Him in His redemptive work in the world.

Do you want to know who Jesus really is? This reading plan explores Jesus’ character and teachings by examining ten parables taught by Him, ten miracles performed by Him, and ten events in His life. Drawing closer to Jesus will change the way you live your day-to-day life, inspiring you to love Him and encouraging you to follow in His footsteps.

This 30-day devotional is written to encourage and equip women to prepare their hearts, minds, and spirits for the coming of Jesus. Rooted in the parable of the ten bridesmaids, each daily reading offers biblical truth, practical encouragement, and a call to live faithfully in the “in-between” of His promised return. As you journey through this devotional plan, you’ll discover how to deepen your faith, serve with purpose, grow in love, forgive freely, and remain steadfast while waiting. It’s an invitation to stay watchful, keep your lamp burning brightly, and live each day with holy expectancy.
