Shalom, the Hebrew word for “peace,” has many meanings, and many uses.
Shalom can mean hello—and goodbye. Shalom figures prominently in greetings, prayers, and synagogue services.
But what is the true meaning of shalom? And how can we incorporate shalom into our own lives? Explore God's blessing of shalom!

The Meaning of Shalom

While Nero and Paul were first-century contemporaries whose lives eventually intersected, the recklessly evil Roman emperor and the radically transformed apostle of Jesus Christ could not have been more different. Let’s take a closer look at five of the most significant distinctions between these men, and the impact that their choices had on the people who were either ruthlessly destroyed or immeasurably blessed by their actions and words.

Based on the book Nero and Paul by Kathie Lee Gifford with Dr. Bryan Litfin

If you want to get fit, you don’t work out just once a week. If you want to get spiritually fit, it’s important to exercise your faith more than an hour on Sunday. This 6-day plan is about building a daily devotional time with God. Personal, meaningful, practical, and designed to help you create and maintain a daily devotional habit. It’s an essential spiritual practice for fostering a relationship with Jesus and growing stronger in your faith.

Daily Devotion | Spiritual Practices

In this 8-day study, we will walk through the passion narratives and unpack how Jesus and his disciples understood them as fulfillments of Old Testament prefigurations of Jesus. Our starting point is that Jesus himself was the first to point out these scriptural connections to the disciples (Luke 24:44-46). And, just as the Holy Spirit opened their minds to understand the things Jesus taught them, we will ask the Spirit to similarly illumine us (John 14:26; 16:12-15).


This Was to Fulfill the Scripture Which Says… (The Bible Effect)

Jesus desires us to remain in Him and promised to remain in us (John 15:4). Our deep longing for God is only a reciprocation of the deep longing our Saviour has for us. Although we long for Him, our busy lives take precedence over our time with God. These meditations can help us realise that “Being with Him” is not just a fixed time of prayer, but a lifestyle to pursue. This is a sequel to the devotional "Being Like Him". May these meditations enable us to reflect on our relationship with Him and experience him in the mundane.
