In this six-day immersive experience, we'll discover what it looks like to be still in the presence of the Lord, to hear from Him, and to truly see Him for who He is. This study includes six powerful songs, the lyrics to those songs, and the devotionals inspired by them. 

Still Before God

When we are hurting or going through a difficult season, we might feel alone and abandoned. It might feel as if God isn't listening to our cries for help or that He doesn't care about our pain. Yet, throughout Scripture God communicates that He is with us, sees us, loves us deeply, empathizes with our pain, and still has good plans for us. He invites us to draw close to Him in times of hardship, receive His comfort, and hold tight to His unchanging truth.

At Christian Vision for Men (CVM), we’ve pulled together some thoughts on how this stuff works—prayer, the Bible, and the church. If you’ve never really been to church (apart from the occasional wedding or funeral), never properly opened a Bible, and haven’t done much praying, then this might be just what you need. Here at CVM we work hard at communicating who Jesus Christ is, the truth, without any gloss or confusing ‘Christian’ language, just simple stuff, honest answers about how this stuff works.

Despite our faith, trying times come. Our faith doesn't make us exempt from painful life experiences; it sustains us in the midst of them. Our faith assures us that we can trust God, even as we hurt. This 7-day devotion explores lessons centered around what I’ve observed in nature about the process of plant growth. We discuss seven powerful healing practices that cultivate resilience and growth through our pain.

Grow Through It: 7 Healing Practices That Cultivate Resilience  a 7-Day Reading Plan by Essie Faye

This Bible plan examines how Jesus leveraged his identity to overcome temptation in the wilderness. Many of us walk away from this passage with an understanding that we should resist the devil—and we should.

But sometimes resisting temptation can be easier said than done. This plan deeply examines exactly what Jesus did to stand strong in his identity to resist the temptation of the devil.

Identity & Temptation

We live in a world that's constantly telling us to follow our dreams and be who we are—anything goes! For those considering faith, a lifetime of following Christ can appear...limiting. In this four-day devotional, Andrew and Wendy Palau will speak the Biblical truths that counteract this lie. Join us, and find out how good God's boundaries truly are! 

God's Good Boundaries

In Matthew 5:38-48, Jesus doesn’t shy away from giving us the very challenging command to love our enemies. 

Now, maybe you are a man who rightly discerns that you don’t have any “enemies.”  But for our purposes, we are going to define “enemies” as those people who have wronged us, and/or hurt us, and/or who are very difficult to love.

Men, we need the love of Christ within us to really love all people the way He wants us to. This week, we will explore how.
