Hope

It seems like the world is more divided than ever. No matter where we turn, it feels like we're being forced to choose a side. This Us vs. Them mentality has crept into our churches too, especially when it comes to missions. Some champion evangelism at the expense of addressing physical needs. Others take a more humanitarian approach, dismissing spiritual needs altogether. It's exhausting and frustrating. But it doesn't have to be this way. What if I told you there was a more vibrant, love-out-loud approach to missions? What if I told you we were made for more?

Help and Hope in a Divided World

The Battle Is the Lord’s. There is a spiritual battle going on between God and Satan (see the reading plan “The Great Battle”). There are also a lot of wars and battles going on between humans. And sometimes there is a clear connection between the two. This reading plan covers several Bible stories about earthly battles where the Lord was clearly involved.

The Battle Is the Lord's

There is a reason for the season you are in. No matter the trials or blessings, trust the Lord and give Him your yes. Make it a point to rest in the Lord and encounter Him in whatever season you are in. 

There's A Reason For Your Season - #Life Series

We want to take new ground in every area of our lives. As we pioneer, we are going to need a big faith and a courageous spirit. One of the greatest ways we build our faith is by engaging the Scriptures and listening to the Word of God. The greatest days are ahead because the greatest adventures of your life have yet to be lived. Readings in Genesis and Nehemiah.

Pioneer: Taking New Ground Together, Part 6

Paul writes to the church in Thessalonica to clear up confusion circulating about Jesus’ return. In a previous letter, Paul had said Jesus’ return was imminent. Some in the church took that to mean Jesus was coming back immediately. Paul corrects them and instructs the church on how to live in the meantime. Reading this study, you’ll face the reality of Jesus’ return and our responsibility to live for him.

2 Thessalonians: A 5-Day Reading Plan

One of the things that stays constant in all seasons of life is knowing or wanting to know that we’re not alone in our life experiences. There’s someone else going through something similar or some version of it, so you can take courage.
You may even be the somebody a hurting person needs.

Me and Who Else

God sending His son is the answer and cure to a hurting and broken world. Talking to others about the gospel and what Jesus has done can be difficult, so over the next couple of days, we are going to talk through some practical ways to approach this!
