Our walk with Jesus starts when we follow Him by faith. We also only finish strong by faith.

Through their lives, we receive an invitation – to start well and finish strong, fixing our eyes on Jesus.

“Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen”, it says in Hebrews 11:1. The Christian faith is largely about things you can’t see with your natural eyes.

This reading plan covers several Bible verses about blindness, restored sight, (not) seeing, and believing.

This 10-day reading plan spotlights important and helpful spiritual lessons from the Bible and from the adaptive sports and life experiences of a number of Christians involved in this area of the world of sport. This plan was written by Steve Jones.

An altar moment is a holy encounter. It occurs when we set our heart’s intention on meeting with God and He meets with us.

This plan focuses on Jesus’s final moments with his disciples, crucifixion, and resurrection. It is Jesus’s last will & testament.

In this series through Revelation, we look forward and ask ourselves, "What's next?"
