The invaders charge. They climb barricades. Nothing stops them. Each soldier does what he’s told, so disciplined, so determined. They don’t get in each other’s way. Each one knows his job and does it. Undaunted and fearless, unswerving, unstoppable. They storm the city, swarm its defenses, Loot the houses, breaking down doors, smashing windows. They arrive like an earthquake, sweep through like a tornado. Sun and moon turn out their lights, stars black out. GOD himself bellows in thunder as he commands his forces. Look at the size of that army! And the strength of those who obey him! GOD’s Judgment Day—great and terrible. Who can possibly survive this?

Joel is all about Jesus! This 3-day plan will walk you through the book of Joel by reading just a chapter or two a day. Each day is accompanied by a short devotional and video that explains what’s happening and shows you how each part of the story points to Jesus and his Gospel.
Joel’s prophetic work aimed to bring warning of God’s coming judgment over Israel. The book points towards a coming “day of the Lord” when God will judge all the earth. God invites his people to repent and return to Him, reminding them He is “gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love” (Joel 2:13).

The principles of God’s kingdom defy human logic. In humbling ourselves, we are exalted. In giving, we gain. In dying, we live! Fasting is similar; physical hunger on earth allows us to experience greater spiritual fullness. In this plan, you will be challenged to see God’s kingdom advance in and throughout your life by practicing the discipline of fasting.
Most of us long for the fairy tale, the “happily ever after,” love everlasting. But then, life happens. Husband-and-wife team Rebecca St. James and Cubbie Fink have learned that the secret of lasting, in faith and in family life, is choosing to endure together, through the challenges and joys of our lives.
