Mark 7:15-23

The Bible is our handbook for life, and its commands are guideposts to righteousness. Jesus saved us by his death but also calls us to a life of obedience. Foremost in God’s law are the Ten Commandments, which still apply today. While these commandments seem straightforward, one in particular is far more difficult than you might imagine or hear about at church! Read on to find out….

For about a year and a half, I struggled with something. I couldn’t quite name it or figure it out; I just knew something wasn’t right. I discovered that the devil was DISTRACTING me! I share about how this dangerous ploy of the enemy can be used to destroy the calling and purpose God has for us and how we can put an end to it!

We often hear people say, "Fake it until you make it". Have you ever tried it, only to find yourself exposed and vulnerable in the end? In this plan, we will explore moments like that in Jacob's life. I hope that the next few days will inspire you to live more authentically in Christ.

Christians are different. They can’t help it. When you’re born again and filled with the Spirit, it changes you. This leads to different values about right and wrong, and a different lifestyle to match it. This series of 5-day plans uses the 10 Commandments (following the classic Augustinian ordering) as a vehicle for an alternative, Christ-like morality and Jesus-way of living.
