Prayers For The Unreached

Hunger, hope, grace, kindness, love, security and faith—they are all attributes of compassionate hearts. In this plan, well-known bloggers share how they were impacted by these attributes of compassion while traveling into areas of poverty.

Attributes Of Compassion

The Bible is very clear about going. I’ve heard it said that we are all called to go, but that we need special permission to stay. This plan will encourage readers to start to ‘go’ . First in their hearts, then with their hands and possibly one day with their feet.  It will encourage you to pray, to embrace and to obey the leading of Jesus as you go to those around you locally and possibly globally.

What Does It Mean To 'Go'?

We were all orphans once, but God adopted us into His family. Consider an all powerful being placing a special premium on defending and caring for the weakest among us. As we grapple with this amazing reality, we encounter the truth of God’s fathering heart.

God's Heart For The Orphan By Dr Robert Glover

Ten years ago I moved across the ocean, from Tennessee to Uganda, full of something I thought was hope but was more like naive optimism. When I faced tragedy, loss, and my own weakness, I wondered,  Is God really good?  And that’s when I began to understand what true hope is. I pray you will find hope in these brief devotionals—a whisper from God that even in your deepest sorrow, He is near.

What if we don’t have to travel far to get close to people who are distant from God? What if Christians were the best neighbors? Would your street change? Would heaven be fuller? A long time ago, a religious leader asked Jesus how to get into heaven. Jesus answered with a question, then the story of the Good Neighbor. No surprise, 2000 years later Jesus’ story still explains how to neighbor. Join Pastor Craig Groeschel and Life.Church in a practical, story-filled guide to meeting your neighbors and loving them as yourself. But don’t just read it—live it!

A loud voice easily draws a crowd. It takes purposeful intention to lean into a whisper. “Shhh, I’m trying to listen.” The whisper of God is an invitation to the secret place.

The Messiah Is Born
