Markus 8:1

Spend 4 days realigning your perspective with what the Bible has to say. Engage with different stories and how the people of the Bible kept a Godly perspective to move forward in their lives in victory.

Jesus’s life and words are beautifully clear: how you treat people matters—because every person matters to God! God wants to use your ordinary days to make a bigger impact than you could ever expect…one simple, courageously kind word and action at a time. Experience the lavish lovingkindness of God in a fresh way so you can share it with others.

The Greek word “splagchnizomai” describes what we feel when we are faced with pain and suffering of others. In this plan you’ll learn more about the meaning and impact of splagchnizomai in the life of Jesus and the people He encountered. It begs the question: Do I (also) want more splagchnizomai in my life? This reading plan was written by Harriët Hofsink, who works at Compassion Netherlands.
