What is God really like? Is God angry, violent, and retributive? If we want to believe that, we can read the Bible in a way that supports this. But what if God is like Jesus? What if God is fully revealed in the life and death of Jesus Christ? Wouldn’t that be good news? Well, that is the good news!

The most important moment in the history of the world was when Jesus, the Light of the World, became flesh to dwell among us.  Angels announced his arrival, poems were written, shepherds ran and Mary sang! Come with us on a five-day journey as we examine His light, how it inspired those around Him and how it impacts us today.

This five day plan walks the believer on God's proven pathway to courage in the shadow of giants.  Courage doesn't happen in a moment.  It is shaped by God and demonstrated in the crisis.

This devotional series focuses on communing with God, the One who is near, and exploring what it means to be “gates of heaven” on the earth. This idea presents itself in Genesis with Jacob, and in the New Testament through the life Jesus and at Pentecost. We created this series as a way for anyone around the world to engage with the theme of our Heaven Come Conference: “God is Near”.

As Christians, we unfortunately have a reputation for being judgmental. This video series helps us to lose the negative label and instead, treat others as Jesus did--with grace and truth. 

My new song "Known" is really meaningful to my faith journey. My desire is that one day we will all be willing to walk from hopelessness to hope, from hurt to healing, from the struggle to surrender—that we will look around the room, beneath the cross, seeing each other and hearing Jesus tell us that we're not alone. Thank you for joining me on this journey. -Tauren Wells

This reading plan includes five daily devotions based on Max Lucado’s book Jesus: The God Who Knows Your Name. This study will explore the depth and intimacy of God’s love for us as shown through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

In January, we set apart one week of prayer, fasting, and consecration to hear from God and know His direction for us for the year. We claimed God’s amazing grace to rule and reign in our lives throughout that week. Until now, our faith and stance stay the same—humbly asking God to let His amazing grace rule and be seen in our lives.

We all want to grow, but how often do we actually take steps in the right direction? Today, everyone seems to have an opinion about the best way to better ourselves and develop into the people we want to be, but what if we looked to Jesus as our ultimate example? This plan explores, Luke 2:52 laying out a simple path to growing like Jesus.

Do you desire to encounter Jesus? When we “encounter” something, we are coming face-to-face with it. It’s our hope that over these next five days, we’ll notice our hearts burning within us like the Emmaus Road travelers (Luke 24:32) as we also walk with Jesus. Perhaps we’ll find ourselves having a deeper desire to draw closer to the Son as we encounter Him in unexpected ways.

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this powerful message. Whosoever believes in Christ, though he were dead — yet shall he live. Jesus Christ was, and is, the Resurrection. Death could not overthrow His Authority. Nothing could overrule His Power. The power and decay of death were not stronger than the Authority, Might and Power of Jesus. He was, and is, the Resurrection — and He is soon to return.

Our world in the best of times seems uncertain and upside down. If it wasn’t for Jesus, the Son of God, we would have no hope. Every Christmas reminds us that the gift of Immanuel—God with us—is a gift that keeps on giving. We are never alone, from now until eternity. That is worth celebrating.

Christmas is a time of joy, hope and love. As we get ready to celebrate, we are going to take a journey to Bethlehem and experience the story of Christmas to prepare our hearts to receive the greatest gift of all - Jesus.

The ancient Scriptures, written by the prophets of old, declare that the Word of God was indeed made flesh and dwelt among us. Jesus, the Christ, was the fulfillment of both the Law and the Prophets. This year, may we share His peace and declare goodwill toward all mankind!
