ABALAWI 19:16

What is the fear of God, and is it a good thing for me to be fearful of Him? In this 3-day devotional by beloved pastor, R.T. Kendall, you will encounter the presence of God in new and exciting ways as you delve into true reverence for God. Learn how the fear of God can play a powerful role in growing your relationship with Christ.

Discipleship works against fear. As we obey God’s commands, we entrust ourselves to him. Like the students attending the schools founded by D. L. Moody in Northfield, MA, God’s people “are encouraged to test the meaning and value of the Bible’s teachings experimentally, by acting upon them, and living them out.” As we “test experimentally” the word of God, we will find that we will have fewer and fewer reasons to be afraid. You can get an expanded version of this plan at moodycenter.org/fear.

We were made for community, and Sisters in Christ was written to meet that need. Now is the time to come together to encourage and support each other as we live our lives authentically as Christ's followers. It's not an exclusive group, but a group of sisters who choose to live life together across the globe, one sister at a time.

Leviticus is the book most readers intend to read and the fewest finish. Where Exodus brings liberation, Leviticus stops the narrative and replaces it with instruction — sacrifice, purity codes, a holiness code covering everything from worship to wages. What looks like a detour is the Torah’s heart: the God who freed Israel now lives in the camp. How does a people that is not holy live in the presence of a God who is? Over seven days, this plan traces Leviticus’s answer — and finds it is less about burden than about grace.
