Jesus makes it really clear for us in John 15, that we must abide in Him, for apart from Him we can do nothing. Simply put, if we are going to grow and thrive in our relationship with the Lord, we must be regularly connected to Him. One of the most foundational and essential ways to connect with and abide in Christ is by reading his Words. The Bible is God’s Word given to us to know Him and to know how to follow Him. The more we engage with the Bible and with God, the more we will grow and produce the good fruit in our lives He desires for us. Come on. Let’s read His Words of life together!

In this plan we will take a close look at the life and letters of the Apostle Paul. We will see how he was able to lead a legacy that continues to impact the world today - and we will see how each of us can also lead a life that leaves a legacy.

Beginning with Philippians, Paul gives insight into his personal experiences, including his ability to be content in both abundance and lack. Then, in Colossians, Paul focuses on the supremacy of Christ, showcasing His sovereignty in the physical and spiritual realms.
