Нақшаҳои хониши ройгон ва садоқатҳои марбут ба 1 Corinthians 9:23

Helping another person come to Christ is one of our greatest privileges as a believer. Yet it can also be intimidating for many of us. The Bible provides insights and encouragement to equip and engage us in the process. Three important truths lay the foundation: Everyone is on a spiritual journey, God is already at work, and he wants to use you. Join us for this 28-day journey together.

Welcome to your grand adventure! Through these devotions, we will travel around the world exploring truth from God’s Word. Our guides will be friends from the diverse network of OneHope global partners. Their geographic areas may vary, but they are all unified with the purpose of sharing God’s Word. Journey with us on a 30-day tour through the Scriptures!

Corinth was a major port city in ancient Greece—a center of commerce, religious diversity, and known for loose living. Precisely there, a young church was growing, learning to live out their faith in a secular environment. Many issues they faced remain relevant today. In this reading plan, you'll see how Paul addresses the early believers’ challenges and shows what it means to live as a church, strengthen one another, and use the Spirit’s gifts. It’s about genuine love, handling conflict, the power of the resurrection, and how faith in Christ can transform everyday life.

Paul is in dire circumstances, yet remains unwavering in his faith. While writing to Timothy from prison, he encourages him to draw strength from the grace found only in Christ. Paul reminds Timothy—and all of us—that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-discipline. May this plan from 2 Timothy chapters 1-3 inspire and strengthen you as you seek to remain steadfast and guard the gospel.

The church is alive and moving—in places of persecution, regions of explosive growth, and cultures where faith seems forgotten. This 30-day devotional invites you to journey with believers around the world who courageously follow Christ. Through Scripture and powerful stories, you’ll be inspired by their faith, challenged in your walk, and encouraged to join God’s global mission. The story of the church is still being written—and you are part of it.

This reading plan shows you that you are a member of God’s rescue team, looking out for those who are drowning and throwing them the life ring of Jesus’ good news, especially those who once were believers but who have drifted off. God has commissioned all of us to bring them back.

In these devotional notes, Robin and Zoe Ham point us to Paul’s focus on our identity in Christ and the reality of his return. We’ll see that this letter is more than just a reprimand; it is rich in gospel truth and has plenty to teach us about how to live in the light of Jesus’ resurrection today.

This reading plan is part of a series that will take you through the entire New Testament in a year. Each month's plan covers a specific book or books. October focuses on 1 Peter, James, Jude, and 1 Corinthians. The plan is designed to be used with a small group of friends. Read the daily passage first, reflect on one or all of the questions, and try the engagement practice.

Over the next 31 days, we’ll journey through two of Paul’s prison letters: Ephesians and Philippians. We’ll unpack some of his greatest lessons including how you can live victoriously, even in hard times, and how you can find and keep your joy in all seasons.
