મફત વાંચન યોજનાઓ અને Mark 2:24થી સંબંધિત મનન

“Our hearts are restless till they find their rest in Thee.” Never before have so many of us felt the restlessness Augustine described with this famous sentence. But what is the solution to our lack of true rest? As this three day plan will show, the solution partially lies in viewing the ancient practice of Sabbath through a different lens—through the lens of “Thee”—Jesus—our ultimate source of peace.

We live in a fast-paced world that tempts us to never stop. There is always more to do and more to hustle. Yet since Creation, God has instituted a regular day of rest called the Sabbath. To answer whether Christians should honor the Sabbath in our modern lives, let’s look at the importance of it, God’s intent with it, and how it can be applied to our modern lives.

The Bible is our handbook for life, and its commands are guideposts to righteousness. Jesus saved us by his death but also calls us to a life of obedience. Foremost in God’s law are the Ten Commandments, which still apply today. While these commandments seem straightforward, one in particular is far more difficult than you might imagine or hear about at church! Read on to find out….

The Holy Spirit uses God’s Word to grow believers in their faith and increase their passion for Jesus.

Self-care has become all the rage. Clean eating, rest, exercise, essential oils, "me time."

This Soul Care series will explore how to take care of your soul ... the most important part of you.

Is “remember the Sabbath” a biblical suggestion that has fallen out of fashion or an inconvenient rule that gets in the way of a full life? Neither says musician and spiritual adviser Justin McRoberts. Instead, this five-day study of the Sabbath, excerpted from his book Sacred Strides, is an invitation to fully experience the Love of God in our work through our rest.

The Sabbath is perhaps the most misunderstood commandment. Far from an austere day of legalistic rules prohibiting your favorite activities, it’s an invitation to slow down and experience delight. In this seven-day reading plan, we’ll look at how the Bible describes Sabbath as a wellspring of joy, gratitude, connection, justice, peace, and delight. By walking the Sabbath way, we can receive the abundant life Jesus came to offer us.

Mark is all about Jesus! This 13-day plan will walk you through the book of Mark by reading only 1-2 chapters 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.

The Gospel of Mark presents Jesus as the Son of God and the perfect servant of God. This 14-day reading plan invites readers specifically into the teachings of Jesus as chronicled by Mark, a close disciple of the Apostle Peter.

Mark uses the word “immediately” over forty times in his Gospel, emphasizing the intentional nature of Jesus’ ministry. The quick succession of healings and miracles shows that Jesus “came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:44). Through Mark’s Gospel, we are reminded that true greatness in God’s kingdom comes not through selfish ambition, but by being the servant of all.
