Forgiveness

Have you been hurt? Unfortunately, most of us have. But while it’s normal to sometimes get hurt, it’s not okay to stay hurt – that’s unforgiveness, and it’s like drinking poison and expecting the other guy to die. It’s eating your lunch! This five day plan can help you leave the hurt behind by forgiving even the toughest person or the most horrible event, so that your heart can be free for good. 

How to Get Free When Someone Hurts You

The final Passover meal in the Upper Room. The anguish of the Garden of Gethsemane. The betrayal and arrest on the Mount of Olives. The mockery of a trial. The barren hill of execution. These and other spots mark key milestones as Yeshua (Jesus) moved through His final, pivotal hours on earth. This devotional serves as your guide to re-living and understanding the most important 24 hours in human history.



His Final Footsteps

Many scripture verses talk about the days surrounding Easter. It begins with Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem riding on a donkey. It ends with Him explaining scripture on the road to Emmaus after His resurrection. There were many emotions felt by those who walked with Jesus as He journeyed to the tomb. Each of the five days in this devotional contains a short (1-2 minute) audio message. The guests share an experience with similar emotions. They will help you experience a more significant and reflective Easter. 

Journey To An Empty Tomb

When we deeply accept our Father’s embrace, we will be neither self- rejecting nor prideful; rather, we will become humble and grateful. When we see ourselves as God sees us, we find true freedom.

How God's Love Changes Us: Part 1- Overcoming Shame & Self-Contempt

“More than conquerors,” that’s what the Bible calls those who have put their faith in Jesus Christ for eternal salvation from the consequences of sin (Romans 8:35-39). So why do we continue to struggle after surrendering our lives to Him?  Because the Enemy is alive and well and wants to steal our joy.  Don’t let him!  Overcome by the power of the Holy Spirit instead.

More Than Conquerors: Claiming Victory Over Sin

At the heart of the Christian story is the love of God for his people. But the staggering thing is how God's love extends to his enemies as well. That same love compels God's people to extend love to neighbour and enemy.

Love Your Neighbour (And Your Enemies)

James 2:26 says, “Faith apart from works is dead.” If we’re to experience the fullness of life offered to us through our faith we must put our words into action. We must not profess to love God on Sundays and live as if he isn’t present, real, or good on Monday. May your faith come alive as you seek to be a doer of the word.

Love Does

Jesus came to set us free, but there can definitely be seasons in our journey with Him where we can feel anything but free.
