Doubt

We all know someone who is a spiritual skeptic. Lee Strobel was once a skeptic as well. His bestselling book, The Case For Christ, detailed his up-and-down journey to faith, and now a major motion picture based on his story is coming to theaters on April 7. This new devotional, featuring clips from the forthcoming movie, will encourage you and help you point your friends to THE CASE FOR CHRIST.

The Case For Christ

This plan is not for the settled and the steady and secure in their faith, or for the atheist. This plan is for doubting Thomases and denying Peters. For the believer who does not understand why things appear as they are. For the believer who isn't sure if they can keep believing yet still longs to know Jesus better.

Devotions for Deconstructors, Disciples, & Doubters by Dr. Jason Lee McKinney

In a year labeled in 2020, we thought it would be great to develop a devotional on how we Focus our eyes on Jesus. We will look at five different times the Bible talks about seeing Jesus and the situation. Join us as we step into revealing, powerful and personal encounters with the Savior.

UNCOMMEN: Focus

The Bible is a literary masterpiece full of images that help us understand God’s character and plan for us — including rocks and stones. Bible teacher and author Kat Armstrong will guide you through the stories of Jacob, Moses, Joshua, Jesus, and the church. In doing so, you’ll find that just as stones were used to build altars and memorials of worship, they will build our faith.

Stones: Making God's Faithfulness Your Bedrock

Though we may utter countless prayers and doubt their efficacy, God assures us that our pleas are heard. Our prayer doesn't conclude with a simple "amen"; rather, it echoes through eternity, already answered by the divine.

Faith After Saying 'Amen'

We sometimes feel disappointed with ourselves, with people around us, or even with God! This reading plan closely follows two people who were deeply disappointed with Jesus, but found their way back to renewed hope and joy in the Lord God. Let their example inspire and encourage you!

What to Do if You Are Disappointed with God?

Whether you've gone to church your whole life or just started, it’s understandable if you have questions about God and the Bible, especially when some things seem unbelievable. Our doubts don’t have to destroy our faith. We might just find our voice when we speak up about questions we have. For the next 28 days, we’ll look at how Jesus met people where they were, showing that we can trust him even when we don't understand. We’ll also see that trusting God’s plan is key to knowing that our questions really do matter and God never gives up on us.

Unbelievable

Hope seems in short supply at the moment, and the hope we often refer to comes up short.  It can leave us hope-less. 
In this five-part devotional, Hope Reframed, we look at what scripture says about hope, and how it defines this enduring and saving quality – “now abide faith HOPE and love.” - For more of Simon's writing head to simonmcintyre.net


Hope Reframed

Have you ever heard Scripture’s truths but wondered where to find those truths in the Scriptures? Or have you ever wondered where to find evidence for belief in God in the Bible? You’re not alone. This 7 day devotional explores Jesus’ claims, his deity, and offers thoughts demonstrating that he is the Messiah by Lee Strobel, a former atheist. Devotional thoughts are drawn from Lee's own experiences and feature a journalistic style from his days as an investigative reporter with the Chicago Tribune. This plan is perfect for those engaged in a thorough search for the truth to decide if Jesus was who he claimed to be.
