I've stepped in enough potholes to know they're everywhere—especially the ones that look like success. This isn't your typical devotional with churchy language. It's a raw, honest look at the four traps that snare good men: performance, passion, position, and possessions.
Stop chasing the wrong things. Each day includes real Scripture, honest insights, and practical steps that work in the real world.
This isn't about becoming perfect—it's about becoming free. No religious jargon, just biblical truth with the honesty of a guy who's been there.

Pain to Peace: A Man's Path Past Pitfalls

Here's the 3-day devotional for the song “Celebrate" from 3 Little Words – Let It Shine (Volume 3) — a simple yet deep way to reflect on God's presence in our lives, with a Bible verse, fun reflection, and practical activity for each day! Let's teach our kids about the Kingdom, cultivating this devotional habit and encouraging them to see God's presence in our daily lives!

Celebrate

In Matthew 5:38-48, Jesus doesn’t shy away from giving us the very challenging command to love our enemies. 

Now, maybe you are a man who rightly discerns that you don’t have any “enemies.”  But for our purposes, we are going to define “enemies” as those people who have wronged us, and/or hurt us, and/or who are very difficult to love.

Men, we need the love of Christ within us to really love all people the way He wants us to. This week, we will explore how.

How Do I Love My Enemies?

Has it felt like God is silent in the middle of your struggles?

God, Are You Testing Me?

The virtues of the Kingdom are transformative values that can change the world around us. This seven-day plan will help you transition from knowledge to action and from declarations to lifestyle. You will explore five key virtues—humanity, hospitality, safety, empathy, and interaction—and discover how God's love becomes tangible through them. If our loved ones do not experience the goodness of our relationship with God, it is time to reflect. The Kingdom of God begins with how we live every day.

Kingdom Virtues

As Christian men, Jesus calls us to “fish for people”, but many of us struggle with what that means and doubt our ability to do it or even know how to do it. This week, we will examine what it means to share Jesus with others. So, grab your rods, and let’s head out into deeper waters to see what our Teacher has for us! Written by Brad Klassen.


Fishing for People

Keys are powerful symbols in Scripture, representing authority, access, ownership, and revelation. Just as physical keys unlock doors, spiritual keys unlock divine truths, opportunities, and victories. Jesus spoke of keys that bind and loose, open and shut, and grant kingdom authority. 

In this 10-day plan, we will explore the meaning of keys in the Bible, how they apply to our lives, and how we can walk in the authority God has given us. Do not miss this opportunity to learn what He will say to YOU!
