Luke 13:35

Following Jesus means becoming like Jesus, especially in the face of evil. Stephen in the book of Acts gives us a picture. This 5-day plan continues a journey through the book of Acts, the Bible’s gripping sequel of Jesus at work in the life of his followers as he expands his Kingdom to the ends of the earth. It’s a journey on what it means to be a Christian. It’s a story in which you have a role to play.

The busyness of everyday life, the disappointment, and heartbreak, the broken relationships that wound us to the core…all lead to tragic forgetfulness. Have you forgotten that Jesus still loves you desperately? Let this 6-day devotional from Andrew Palau remind you: Jesus will never forget you. He's moved with compassion for you. He cares about every detail of your life. He longs to be with you—right now.

The Kingdom of God is free but there is also a cost to be paid.

This seven-day devotional traces Jesus's final journey to Jerusalem, from his first announcement of what awaited him there to his arrival in nearby Bethany. Through Scripture readings and reflections, we’ll put ourselves in the shoes of Jesus’s companions—experiencing their hopes, fears, and moments of faith. As we witness Jesus's unwavering resolve in the face of what lies ahead, we'll consider what it truly means to follow him, even when God's plans challenge our expectations.
