Matthew

Join us as we start the year reading through the Gospels together! This 21-day devotional, written by the pastors and staff of Oasis LA, invites you to draw closer to Jesus through the reflection of His life, ministry and teachings. Each day includes a Scripture reading, a short interpretation from one of our leaders, and a practical step to live out Jesus’ way in daily life. Our prayer is that these three weeks renew your focus and inspire your faith in a fresh and personal way.

21 Days in the Gospels

In this 8-day journey through the Beatitudes, you’ll discover how humility, mercy, and peacemaking (and more) reshape your priorities around God’s kingdom. Forget the pressure of keeping perfect resolutions — this study helps you start the year grounded in grace. Each day leads you to a different beatitude, with space to reflect and pray, helping to deepen your intimacy with Jesus.

8 Resolutions Jesus Would Be Happy With

In Matthew 18:3 NIV, Jesus says, "Unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." What did He mean? This one-week plan covers seven aspects of childlike faith we should aspire to. 

Don’t Be a Child! Be Like a Child - 7 Days of Exploring Childlike Faith

What does it truly mean to serve Jesus? In a world filled with need, pain and uncertainty, small acts of kindness can feel insignificant. Yet, Jesus reminds us in Matthew 25:40 that when we serve others, we are serving him.  

Through real-life stories of transformation, this four-day devotional will challenge and inspire you to put your faith into action.

Join us as we explore how to walk in obedience, trust our Good Shepherd and serve with love and purpose — unto Jesus.

Unto Jesus: Serving With Love and Purpose

Journey along through Matthew chapters 21 - 28, tracing Jesus’ final days from His entry into Jerusalem to His resurrection. Each devotion unpacks the urgency, sacrifice, and triumph of Christ’s mission, revealing the depth of God’s love and the cost of redemption. Reflect on the Last Supper, Gethsemane, the cross, and the empty tomb whilst encountering Jesus in His suffering and ultimate glory. Whether preparing for Easter or seeking a fresh perspective, The Passion seeks to stir hearts to know Jesus and make Jesus known with hope, boldness, and passion.


The Passion

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

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.
