1Yah 4:2

How would you describe your faith journey?  Is it a well-established fire?  Is it warming? Comforting? Does it push away darkness?  Or is merely a spark? Not quite yet a flame?  Hardly casting a shadow.  These guided audio meditations will help recognize a spark from an encounter with God.  And watch the spark turn to flame.  Pushing out fear and darkness.

It can be so easy to doubt and to fear, especially in a world that often encourages us to rely on ourselves, not on something as "out there" as faith. It can be easy to wonder if we'll ever find our way back to God. This plan invites you to acknowledge what's hard in this season while helping you create space to once again draw close your good Father.

There comes a time in every surfer’s life when he or she graduates from the learner’s break and paddles out to join the line-up. And the same is true of your faith in Jesus. If you want to handle the big waves that come your way in the ocean of life, you need to go deeper with Him. This plan takes you further in your faith development—and deeper with God.

The reflections in The Message Devotional Bible let the wisdom of the Scriptures settle more fully into your spirit. In this devotional, we'll get a taste of Eugene Peterson's insights on Scriptures from Genesis through Jesus's parables and the epistles of John. As Peterson writes, "It's my privilege to walk with you through the Scriptures. I come as a guide and fellow traveler. Traveling mercies for us both."
