Mark 2:18

How do you view fasting? Is it punishment, deprivation, or torture? Jesus said that his disciples would get into the habit of fasting. The Pharisees also fasted regularly but in a religious way. Jesus came to introduce a new type of fasting: fasting for love of Him. It's a search for intimacy. Let's discover together how fasting develops our communion with our Beloved.

The Holy Spirit uses God’s Word to grow believers in their faith and increase their passion for Jesus. Break down the book of Mark into the “Big Picture” of the passage, then “Digging Deeper” into that section and then move into “Living Out” the lessons that are taught in the passage in this 5-day reading plan.

We offer a collection of parables as spoken by Jesus and recorded in the Gospels in this reading plan series. Part 1 collection is all about the righteousness of our acts.

At its core, discipleship is relational, accompanying others as we follow Jesus together. Yet recent trends show that the Church has not accompanied youth in this way, with more than 1 million walking away from the Church each year. This 7-day devotional launches you toward discipleship that is radically focused on Jesus so everyone can experience the abundant life Jesus offers.
