Psalm 80:9-11

How do you stay connected to Jesus daily? In these lessons, we will read a passage from John 15:1-8 each day. Using an example from everyday life, Jesus explains how to stay connected to Him and why this is important.

For centuries, the Psalms formed the basis of Jewish and Christian worship. They tell the story of God’s activity in creation and the hope we have in God’s promises. This Bible Plan gathers Prof. N.T. Wright’s insights on key psalms, which give shape to the Psalter and serve as key resources of prayer.

What makes you feel alive? Maybe you’re trying to draw life from exciting experiences, enjoyable relationships, new purchases, or the ladder of success. You may even feel as if your well has run dry. Regardless of our many strategies and coping mechanisms for life, only one source satisfies forever. We experience real life—supernatural life—as branches on the one true Vine.

In the darkness a light shines. John’s Gospel highlights seven statements that Jesus makes about himself that reveal to us who he is, why he came, and why that matters to us. As you read through Old Testament passages and discover who Jesus is, may it comfort you and may it help you think of and pray for those who have yet to hear about the Light of the world.
