God knows you're busy. Me, too, brother. But none of us get an exemption from His exhortation to "Be Still." This isn't just a command but it's also a beautiful invitation into something better than busyness, distraction, and stress. This 4 day plan will help you get honest with yourself and equip you to engage with God as he reminds you of his good and perfect plan for your life.

Self-Deception // the "Too Busy" Trap

This 11-day video devotional series is based on Paul’s Letter to the Philippians. These are unprecedented times. When there doesn’t seem a reason to have joy, not to mention to share it, remember God’s Word is unwavering. It speaks to every time and every situation. 

Sharing the Joy

Have you ever kept a gratitude journal or written down what makes you joyful? Is it ever difficult for you to walk in the light of joy? These guided meditations are reflections on joy, and they will help you learn how joy abides within every moment of your life.  And, they will help you rest and be still in the pleasure of God and then share His joy with others.

Be Joyful

In this devotional we will explore the allegory of being instruments in God's hands to create a beautiful work in our lives and the lives of others. God molds and transforms like a skilled artist and over the course of three days, we delve into Scripture to understand this role. Divine delivery, grace and love intertwine in our journey, manifesting God's plan in every aspect of our lives.

Paintbrushes in the Artist's Hands

Is your life characterized by joy? If you’re not sure exactly what that means or would look like, spend the next four days learning from theologian Eugene H. Peterson. Peterson, an author, biblical scholar, and pastor, uncovers the essential nature of joy to the Christian experience. His example, in life as well as in death, was characterized by joy. Find yourself renewed, springing forth no matter the circumstances.

Marked By Joy

Isn’t it adorable watching an older couple express a thriving love that has stood the test of time? We can all learn something from that kind of intentional love. These three guided audio meditations are about learning to love others. The first meditation explores how to live in unity with others simply. The following meditation sets a higher standard. And finally, a reflection helps us model God’s love towards others.

How To Love Others

Life is simply too short to keep the good news of Jesus to ourselves.  Every day there is evidence of how much God loves you and every day there are people who need to hear how much he loves them too.  Straight from God’s Word, this 7-day devotion series shared by The Lutheran Home Association’s chaplains, will help you live out God’s love wherever your day takes you.

Make Every Day Count

We all long for peace, especially at Christmas, but it's easy to miss our Messiah's birth in the midst of the holiday rush. Slow down with us in this Abide meditation as we unwrap God's Word and marvel at the gift of our Savior. 

The Gifts of Christmas

All Is Not Lost, an album by The Brilliance, is a call to awareness and action. We believe that the role of Jesus-followers is not to idly stand by, waiting for the storm to pass; we believe in trying to engage the world and people that surround us with grace. We hope you hear these words with open hearts and open minds, and join us in calling for compassion and love in a time when we desperately need it. There is a better way, a way of peace; All Is Not Lost.
