Whether you're full of faith or struggling to believe, "Return to Love" is the antidote to the spirit of fear and division so many are burdened by. We hope to encourage and strengthen your heart and inspire fresh devotion to the way of Jesus. We pray that "Return to Love" be a reminder to the church in America that in times of trouble, when lies run free...there's a different story.

This 5-day reading plan is based on the devotional message of "Hearts Attuned to God," a talk by M. Basilea Schlink that invites us into a deeper, more intimate relationship with God—not only to receive His love, but to respond to His heart. In a world growing further away from God, we are called to be attuned to His heart, to recognize His grief over sin, and to live in fellowship with Him. These readings lead us beyond a self-centered faith into a life that seeks to love God, comfort His heart, and share in His concerns.
