Hope

Welcome to Lent, a season of anticipation and preparation. We invite you to spend the weeks leading Easter tuning in to the heart of Jesus and considering His way, values, and principles in the world. When we sit at Jesus’ feet as students, hope for what is to come and what’s possible blossoms. May this Lenten season bloom hope afresh in your heart.

Lent: A Journey to Hope in Uncertain Times

The Bible repeatedly uses words and imagery that describe God caring for his people like a mother. These images are both a comfort and an inspiration as we mother our own children. This 3 day series, presented by Words of Hope, celebrates God's fierce and tender love, and our own motherhood too. 

Like a Mother

Do you learn more effectively by hearing, feeling, or doing? I pray these meditations will help you reflect on how to come to know the love of God actively. Knowing God by vigorously giving and living as Christ gave and lived. Not only noticing the needs of others but energetically giving and loving. Living your life listening to God and playing an active role in being His chosen.

Active Listening

You may be incarcerated, but you are not forgotten. Here is two weeks' worth of hope, including devotions and encouraging testimonies from former inmates in a reading plan developed by Hope is Alive Ministries, with the assistance of Beth Niestemski, LCSW, former Associate Director of Mental Health for New York City's Rikers Island.

Hope for the Incarcerated

Of all the sixty-six books that comprise our Bible, the last book is meant to thrill and exhilarate the believer like none other. A beautiful Christ is unveiled while a company of overcoming saints is seen rising into the fullness of Christ. Revelation is exciting, powerful, dynamic, and more than meets the eye. This reading plan from Brian Simmons and The Passion Translation will prepare the way for your understanding of this important book.

Revelation: The Unveiling of Jesus Christ

This reading plan is based on John Eldredge's new book  All Things New.  It delves into what the Restoration, of the New Heaven and the New Earth, will mean for Christians. Readers will gain insight and hope as they face their current struggles. For more information, or to purchase the book, please visit  www.allthingsnew.com . 

All Things New With John Eldredge

Sometimes life's difficulties cause us to feel overwhelmed, but God's Word is full of hope – hope in the gospel.

Gospel Hope: Devotions From Time of Grace

Reimagining your life requires creativity. After all, you need your imagination to produce ideas that lead to something new.

If you can’t see life differently, you’re stuck. That’s a stumbling block. So, I created this devotional to help you revitalize your creativity by tapping into five of God’s characteristics—eternal, majestic, creative, omnipotent, and omniscient.

See how God operates. Then, begin dreaming again.

When Your World Ends

The devotion helps the reader to understand the importance of Christmas, the context of the first Christmas and how it transforms the lives of people.
