People hurt us. And we harden our hearts to protect ourselves. Plans fail. Tragedy comes unexpectedly. In the face of disappointment, we can quickly lose hope and begin to believe God has forgotten us. But He hasn't and He won't. Let this five-day series with Andrew and Wendy Palau refresh your soul—God is FOR you, and His plans for you are good!

This six-day plan walks through Acts 13–16 and invites you to see how the gospel spreads through ordinary people, unexpected resistance, and God’s sovereign guidance. You’ll be challenged to trust God’s grace, live on mission, and respond personally to the life-changing message of Jesus.

Acts of the Apostles is a continuation of the Gospel according to Luke. It bridges from the Gospels that narrate the life and ministry of Jesus to the operations of the early church. It illustrates how the early followers, led by the Holy Spirit, began the work of fulfilling the Great Commission. In this 7 day devotional, we pray that you will be inspired to do the same.
