2 Samuel 9:1-19

How do you respond when someone upsets you? Do you get angry? Are you sad? Do you sneak into their house at night and spread Legos all over their floor? Join in as we explore what Jesus calls us to do with our grudges (Spoiler alert: we are called to forgive!).

Family is more than shared DNA—it is built on love, commitment, and the willingness to say, “I choose you.” Throughout the Bible, we see powerful examples of children raised outside their biological families—yet they are loved, nurtured, and called by God for a purpose. Scripture shows us that family is not just about birth, but about choice. For those considering foster care, adoption, or other forms of family care, this devotional explores how God’s heart for chosen families is woven into His plan of redemption—and how we are called to care for children in need of family.

Disability is a theme from Genesis through Revelation. Through this devotion, we'll look at passages that form our theology of disability. Knowing what the Bible says about disability helps us know how to think about disabilities and how to treat people with disabilities (including ourselves if we are diagnosed with a disability). Let's make sure that theology has a firm foundation that will hold up when we are ministering to people with disabilities and their families. To do that, we're going to look at God's plan, God's purpose, God's provision, God's place, and God's promise in disability.

The Bible is full of people to emulate, not all of them “able-bodied.” Representation is important, and God gets that!

Read on to learn from five different and disabled people in the Bible.
