Whether you’re experiencing the loss of a friendship, a broken dream, or a breakup—experiencing heartbreak can be confusing and challenging. In this 7-Day Bible Plan, you’ll learn how to tend to your broken heart God’s way. 

Near to the Brokenhearted: How to Heal From Heartbreak God’s Way

We’re living in an unprecedented time because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Where do we find hope and “good news” in the middle of a continual stream of bad news? For followers of Jesus, there is always Good News. In this 7-day Plan, we’ll dive into some promises we find in our good God and the faith we’ll need to stand on them. 

Good News: Encouragement for a World in Crisis

“Who is God?” “What is sin?” “Who is the Holy Spirit?” These questions are foundational to the Christian faith. So grab some friends and, in this 5-day Plan, take a closer look at what Scripture tells us about the foundations of our faith.

Foundations of Faith

When the word prayer comes to our minds, we probably have a picture of what that looks like. Regardless of your background, you probably have some prior experience with the concept of prayer. In this 7-day plan, we’ll dive deeper into what prayer looks like and how we can incorporate practices that will help us begin an ongoing conversation with God that will last our entire lives.


A 7-Day Guide To Prayer

If you’re alive, then you’ve probably struggled with worry. Some people worry a lot, while others occasionally allow things to preoccupy our thoughts. No matter how often or how little, it’s wise for us to learn how to navigate this monster that we allow to steal our peace and hijack our faith. This 4-day Plan will help you do just that. 

How to Stop Worrying

Grief is a human experience and no one is immune to it. We grieve when we lose someone or a dream dies. It can strike at any point and is often when we least expect it. We’ll dive into understanding grief and learn how to process the different kinds we’ll go through. Join in on the 5-day Plan so that you can get through your grief in a healthy way. 

Grieving With Hope 

Journey through the 260 chapters of the New Testament over the next 90 days. From the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, all the way to the final book of Revelation, God will speak to you throughout the teachings of those who were transformed by our Savior.

Dreaming of a fresh start? On the verge of a new season? In this 7-day Prayer Plan, prepare for the future God has for you by intentionally seeking His heart. Discover what breakthrough can happen when you draw near to God and make space for Him to draw near to you. 

Prayers for a Fresh Start

Throughout the Bible, we're called to “be thankful” and “give thanks.” Why? Because we have a lot to be grateful for! We won't become thankful by accident, but with an intentional habit of gratitude, we'll become even better versions of ourselves as we follow Jesus.

How to Be Grateful for Your Life

Facing difficult situations in our lives is inevitable. But in this short 4-day Plan, we’ll be encouraged knowing we are not alone, that God has a purpose for our pain, and that He will use it for His greater purpose.

Going Through Hard Times

In Isaiah 9:6, we see that Jesus is our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. In this 5-Day Plan, we'll celebrate the arrival of Jesus by learning about His different names, and how they apply to our lives today.

Unto Us: Celebrating the Arrival of Jesus

The world’s peace is different from God’s peace. Worldly peace is temporary and dependent upon circumstances. God’s peace offers a permanent solution, which is salvation through Jesus and His presence in our lives. In this Plan, we’ll dive into what God’s peace truly means and how we can experience it in our lives.

Experiencing God's Peace

Dealing with Uncertainty

Generous living isn’t just about the acts we do—it’s a heart we allow God to cultivate within us. It is a journey of the heart and seeing everything we have as a gift from God. In this Bible Plan, we’ll discover that generous living goes way beyond our personal finances— it’s an others-focused lifestyle we live. 


7 Days To Becoming A More Generous Person

While Jesus walked on earth, He performed more miracles than we’ll know about. He healed the sick, brought people back to life, and did unimaginable acts that left onlookers speechless. In this Plan, we’ll learn about five miracles Jesus performed and the truths from them that we can apply to our lives.

The Miracles of Jesus

Every day has the potential to introduce complex new challenges into our lives. But it’s equally likely that each new day will gift us with exciting new opportunities. In this seven-day devotional, staff members at YouVersion help you apply truths from God’s Word to whatever you’re facing today. Each day’s devotional includes a Verse Image to help you share what God is speaking to you.

7 Things The Bible Says About Anxiety

What is God’s will? We’ve all wondered that at some point in our lives. Sometimes while we wait to know what it is, we find ourselves paralyzed. The Bible is our guide to understanding more about this topic. We’ll discuss different aspects of God’s will over this five-day Plan.

How Do I Know God’s Will?

If we choose to follow Christ, we’re engaged in spiritual warfare. It’s unseen and often undetected, but just because we can’t see it doesn’t mean it’s nonexistent. Our spiritual enemy desires to disrupt our lives so we’ll live miserably. In this 5-day Plan, learn how to find victory by relying on God’s strength because it’s available. We just have to begin using it.

What is Spiritual Warfare?

Overcoming difficult seasons can feel impossible when you’re going through them. But thankfully, God is able to do more than what we ask or imagine. In this 4-day plan, discover how God can redeem your pain and disappointment and give it purpose.

Overcomer: Finding Strength in Hard Seasons

Been dealing with disappointment? None of us are exempt from experiencing it. No matter who we are, we’ll all walk through times when we didn’t get what we wanted. So, what do we do with our disappointments? Is it wrong for us to feel this way? In this 4-Day Bible Plan, we’ll look at how we define, accept, process, and use our disappointments for good.

When Disappointment Strikes

All of us need forgiveness. But too often we treat forgiveness like it’s optional, when in reality, it’s a prerequisite to grow in our faith. In this 5-day Plan, we’ll discover hope and truth from different biblical accounts about forgiveness as we receive it for ourselves and extend it to others.

Why Is It So Hard to Forgive?

No matter where you look, it seems there’s enough to make you worry. Whether it’s information from news channels sharing the latest updates or friends and family members sharing their fears, it’s easy to let ourselves focus on frightening circumstances. It’s in these challenging times that we have to renew our minds with God’s truth. This 10-day Plan will help you pray God's truth over your heart, mind, and soul. 

Praying God's Truth Over My Fears

If you find yourself constantly struggling with worry and anxiety, this Bible Plan is for you. There will not be a quick formula that guarantees 100% peace nor will everything related to anxiety be addressed. However, the principles contained in this Plan offer pathways toward victory when they are lived out. You’re invited to begin this journey from anxiety to peace.

Love To The Uttermost

People today love to talk about identity. Who am I? How should I view myself? How should I relate to the world around me? As Christians, we cannot talk long about our identity without pointing to the work of God on us, the relationship we have with him, and the purpose he has for us. The biblical understanding of human self-identity is radically God-centered.
