New Testament Books

If walls could talk or cities had voices, what would the Bible’s ancient sites say about Jesus and your life following Him? Come along on a creative journey through the perspectives of various Bible sites, as “they” describe their encounters with the God of Israel and His Messiah. Can you guess each site before the reveal at the end of these devotions?

If Walls Could Talk

Jesus was intentional with his parables; the synoptic gospels, which give us an overview, present the parable of the sower, the wheat and the weeds, the mustard seed, and the yeast as a whole invitation to grow toward a full life that is given to others.

The Soil, the Seed, the Tree, and the Yeast

This is a seven-day video series which goes verse-by-verse through The Lord’s Prayer. Watch a short, meditative teaching, then engage with reflection questions and prayer prompts throughout the day. It is designed to deepen your understanding of this beautiful passage of scripture and enrich your daily prayer life. 

Our Father in Heaven - a Week in the Lord's Prayer

Over the next 7 days, explore The Lord's Prayer. The disciples saw Jesus' prayer life alive, vital and centred on the Father. They asked Him to teach them how to pray. As followers of Jesus in the 21st century, we can ask the same: 
Jesus, teach us to pray. 

Teach Us to Pray

Perhaps the concept of “conversion” (or “repentance”) evokes resistance in you. It may sound old-fashioned or like an ideal that is impossible to attain. Perhaps you know it is important, but you keep putting it off. That is precisely why Matthew’s story is so instructive. He shows what it truly means to repent, turn to God and follow Jesus.

From Tax Collector to Disciple. How Matthew’s Life Changed When He Answered Jesus’ Call

Many Christians trade their good portion in Christ for their good performance. They serve God while struggling to enjoy God. In Luke 10:38-42, Jesus steps into the tension between submission and service. This seven-day devotional challenges how we think about discipleship, worship, and ministry, and calls us into joyful surrender.

The Good Portion

The people kept asking Jesus for a sign, even after seeing Him heal, deliver, raise the dead, and forgive sins. Still, they wanted more. Jesus refused to perform on demand. Instead, He pointed to the sign that would matter most: Jonah. Three days. A tomb. An empty grave. This study walks through Matthew 12:38–45 and asks a hard question: have we been chasing experiences when God has already given us the resurrection? Three days. One Christ. The only sign we will ever need.

Be challenged. Be stirred. Be mature. Be inspired.

Wisdom & Wonder: A 3-Day Devotional With Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell

The Beatitudes are not merely inspiring words, but the inner path that Jesus outlines for living according to the Kingdom of God. They aim first and foremost at transforming the heart before any visible action. Jesus reveals the character and attitudes that He forms: humility, repentance, gentleness, justice, mercy, purity, peace, and faithfulness. This path requires truth, dependence on God, and renunciation of pride. True blessing comes from a heart aligned with God. This reading plan invites us to a gradual inner transformation by the Holy Spirit. 

The Beatitudes: The Path of the Heart According to Jesus - Jean-Luc Trachsel

Matthew, one of Jesus’ inner circle, was inspired by God to write one of the four biographies about Jesus, and it can change your life. From the ultimate message on Christian living (Sermon on the Mount) to the invitation to find rest in Jesus, from the parables to understand God and grace to the final week of Jesus’ life, Matthew offers us a Jesus Christ Crash Course.

Jesus Christ Crash Course (Part 1)

BibleProject designed this plan to help individuals and groups reflect upon Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount.

Through thoughtful reflections and practical application, you'll discover how these ancient words can transform your prayer life and deepen your relationship with God.

Living Changed: The Lord’s Prayer

If we want an effective prayer life, we must pray like Jesus. The disciples asked Jesus how to pray because His prayers differed from anything else they had seen. By looking at the sermon on the mount, we can learn how to bolster our prayer life and develop a deeper intimacy with God.

Praying Like Jesus

When anxiety attacks, what should be our response? As we continue our trek through the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gives us the answer in the conclusion of chapter 6: “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33 ESV). In “Seek First”, we’re going to walk through Matthew 6:25–7:11 and take a closer look at four things we’re often tempted to pursue before Jesus. Prayerfully, as we study God’s Word together, our worry will be replaced with a desire to seek Him first!

Seek First

Spend time in intentional preparation as Easter draws near. Walk through each day of Holy Week in this 5-day devotional and discover what Jesus taught and did the week before his death and resurrection. 

Holy Week - Follow the Final Steps of Jesus

At the start and middle of every year, we come together as a church to pray and fast to know God more. We believe that God’s heart has always been to reconcile the world to Himself, and He is calling us to actively participate in this mission. As His people set apart for His purpose, let’s discover what God is doing in the world and continue to seek Him and ask Him to grow our passion for missions to reach every nation and campus for His glory.

The Mission | Midyear Prayer and Fasting Devotional 2026

As we enter the season of Lent, the 40 days of spiritual preparation leading up to Easter, let's sit with Jesus on the mountainside and listen with open hearts to His teaching found in Matthew chapters 5-7.

Preparing Your Heart for Lent and Easter With the Sermon on the Mount

This phase in Jesus’ life is focused on leadership development. As the movement continues to grow, Jesus begins to hand-select from his disciples a few to be servant leaders of the movement. After a full night of prayer, consulting with his Father, Jesus appoints twelve men who will begin their apprenticeship as leaders and will eventually become the leaders of the movement.

The Life of Jesus Pt. 4 – Developing Leaders

Are you ready to deepen your prayer life, but not sure how to start? Let’s take a closer look at the instructions Jesus gives us on how to pray in Matthew 6. Learn how to pray like Jesus in this 7-day Bible Plan from Pastor Amy Groeschel.

Worthy: 5 Days to the Resurrection

Matthew

The Gospel of Jesus Christ has shaped Western civilisation and impacted every culture in the world for good. It countered the classical world's tolerance of misogyny, infanticide, and slavery. The Gospel spread the Christian values of equality, dignity, and individual rights. The freedom we deem normative today is the fruit of generations of Christian mission, education, and activism.
Mark shows Jesus as the one who redeemed the world from sin and Satan. He rules over death and disease, nature and nations, culture and customs. His mission is urgent, and his power unchallenged. Christ is the Victorious Son of God.



The Gospel of Mark - Victorious in Jesus

In a world that celebrates status, recognition and influence, Jesus offers a radically different definition of greatness. When his disciples argued about who was the greatest, Jesus taught them that true greatness is found not in position or power, but in humble service. Over three days, we will explore greatness desired, greatness defined, and greatness demonstrated.


True Greatness

Jesus begins his earthly ministry when he is about thirty years old (Luke 3:23). We call this phase “Ministry Foundations.” It lasts about a year and a half. During this time, Jesus will issue two calls. To unbelievers, he says, “Come and see.” To believers, he says, “Follow me” (John 1:39-40).

The Life of Jesus Pt. 2 – Ministry Foundations

The final leg. As our journey through Mark’s gospel approaches its destination, Jesus delivers some of His most important lessons. The disciples follow as Jesus comes to the cross itself, and reveals the purpose for which He came. Join Through the Word as Kris Langham walks you through each chapter of Mark in just minutes a day. Every audio guide provides clear explanation and compelling insight. Great for small groups!

Mark Explained Part 3 | King on a Cross

It’s easy to see a story through our own lens and miss the
bigger picture.
That’s exactly what happened in the days leading up to Jesus’s
death. His followers, his critics, and the crowds all had their own
interpretations of the events unfolding before them—but Jesus
knew something they didn’t.
In Misunderstandings of Easter, a five-day reading plan, we’ll
uncover what they missed and how understanding it can change
the way we see Easter today.

The Misunderstandings of Easter

In the final part of this seven-part devotional journey through the Gospel of Mark, we'll examine Mark 14-16, continuing our verse-by-verse breakdown of Jesus' life and ministry, as told by John Mark. Here, we'll read through Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection!


The Gospel of Mark (Part Seven)

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.

Christ as Servant: A Study in Mark

When you look at your life, what is driving your actions? In this reading plan, we will observe the works that Jesus did as He encountered three desperate people: a tax collector, a paralytic, and a leper. Each encounter reveals to us as Jesus' apprentices one aspect of how we are to model our lives after Him.

Doing What Jesus Did

There are wounds caused by rejection, being overlooked, or feeling pushed aside. When we do not feel chosen, recognized, or welcomed, the heart can begin to close. Yet Jesus reminds us of a powerful truth: the stone that was rejected became essential. In this plan, you will discover how God sees differently than people do, how rejection does not cancel your worth, how He can turn pain into strength, and how to rise again with hope. If you have ever felt dismissed or underestimated, these five days can restore the way you see yourself.
