اعداد 5:24

What does a life that is flourishing in the Lord look like? A garden flourishes when the roots of the plants are nourished with rich, fertile soil and sufficient water. In this series, we will explore some Scripture passages that remind us of the practices, convictions and connections which help our faith and lives to flourish, whatever our circumstances.

In the book of Revelation, John receives revelations from Jesus Christ for events that were to take place. As part of these revelations, John is instructed to write down what he saw and to send it to seven churches in Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey). The messages of these letters served the purposes of encouraging, correcting, admonishing, and exhorting the churches. This fourteen-day reading plan dives into each of the 7 letters with an aim to understand what Jesus was saying to the churches then and what He is saying to the modern church.

Advent is, of course, a time to prepare. To prepare our homes, lives, and our hearts. Join us as we explore the Bible readings used by the Church to challenge, encourage, and help us prepare, not only to celebrate the incarnation but also the second coming of Christ.

This is the fourth part of a reading plan through the Bible following the lectionary pattern of reading in the Psalms, Old Testament, and New Testament each day. In addition, this part of the plan will also focus on our only comfort in life and death from questions 1 & 2 of the Heidelberg Catechism.
