Matthew 11:27-31

Where do you find hope in hard times? In the big and small challenges of life, it can be all too easy to throw your hands up and walk away. We have all had times when despair crept into our lives and relationships. Jesus offers something better - hope for every hard time. In this three-day series, Duane Loynes shares a hope-filled gospel to speak to your deepest needs.

One thing is inevitable—life will bring us hurt, pain and suffering. When it does, we often try to carry that pain all by ourselves. But that only brings deeper hurt and deeper pain. Our emotional pain can feel like it is too great to carry. In these devotions, bestselling author Tony Evans shares the secret of how we can deal with our “garbage” by giving it over to God.

God wants us to share his redemption invitation with others. Still, many people find it difficult to know what to say, especially when the invitation comes with social baggage and difficult realities about ourselves. This plan will help you understand the true meaning of Jesus’s invitation to follow him. You will also learn the most practical way to spread the Good News through conversation.

This devotional reading plan invites you to journey through seasons of grief, uncertainty, and transformation by tracing Scripture’s wilderness landscapes alongside evocative works of art. Each day pairs biblical passages with visual reflections that illuminate the lonely valleys, transitional terrains, and quiet crossroads where faith is tested and renewed.
