And they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath he entered the synagogue and was teaching. And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes. And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit. And he cried out, “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God.” But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him. And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee. And immediately he left the synagogue and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. Now Simon’s mother-in-law lay ill with a fever, and immediately they told him about her. And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her, and she began to serve them. That evening at sundown they brought to him all who were sick or oppressed by demons. And the whole city was gathered together at the door. And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. And he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.

Where do you go to learn how to live well? Where do you go when you want to know how to be a better person or overcome challenges? Who do you seek to teach you what is best or how to make right choices? Do you go to magazines? talk-shows? YouTube? Tony Evans shares how the greatest Person to teach you about life is Jesus Christ. Let’s consider how the Giver of life is also the Teacher of life.
Self-discipline—whether with your time, food, or money—is a good and God-honoring thing. But it can easily become an ultimate thing and thus turn into a soul-sucking idol. How can you avoid crossing over to the dark side of discipline? That’s the question you’ll answer in this 3-day reading plan.

Tony Evans gives you a book summary for each of the Gospels in this four-day reading plan, helping you to gain a broader understanding of this important section of the Bible.
The pages of the Gospels are littered with words, thoughts and actions that reveal to us how radical and unconventional, our Saviour, Jesus Christ was when he walked the earth. This devotional offers a brief glimpse into four occasions in the Gospels where Jesus' actions revealed just how differently he behaved to those around him and challenges us today to walk a bit more like him.
