Matthew 5:7

‘Tis the season to be jolly, but also very busy.  Come away for a few moments of rest and worship that will sustain you throughout the merry labors of the season. Based on the book Unwrapping the Names of Jesus: An Advent Devotional , this 5-day devotional reading plan will guide you to receive Jesus’ rest this Christmas by taking moments to remember His goodness, express your neediness, seek His stillness, and trust His faithfulness.

What truly matters is loving God and loving others, but how do we do that effectively? The truth is, we can’t love people well in our own power. But when we look to God and lay ourselves down in humility, we can live from God’s authentic and powerful love. Learn more about growing in love in this 5-day Bible Plan from Pastor Amy Groeschel.

A gdyby miłosierdzie nie było tylko pobożnym frazesem, ale sposobem na życie? W ciągu pięciu dni na nowo odkryjesz tę Bożą łaskę, która przemienia serca: najpierw ją przyjmujesz, a potem ofiarowujesz innym. To współczucie, które pozwala patrzeć na innych oczami Ojca, które przebacza i które skłania do działania. Czy jesteś gotowy, by stać się kanałem Bożego miłosierdzia?

If Jesus were on board with every idea His followers have staked His claim in, then He’d be one incredibly confused Son of God, always at odds with Himself and overly busy leading the charge for both sides of every debate. Thankfully, Jesus speaks for Himself. You can read His words in this new Life.Church Bible Plan to accompany Pastor Craig Groeschel’s message series, Things Jesus Never Said.
