Evangelism: the very word strikes fear into the hearts of many ordinary Christians.

This plan seeks to reclaim evangelism as the sharing of good news that can be delightful rather than daunting!

Every Nation has always placed a high premium on the power, truthfulness, and benefit of Scripture. God reveals himself to us through his Word, by which he transforms and empowers us. In 2022, we’re calling everyone to a renewed commitment to read, understand, believe, and obey God’s Word. Thus, our 2022 consecration devotional material will focus on metaphors that refer to the Word.

Every year, we come together to pray and fast so we can hear from God and know what He is telling us to do.

Easter is the central holiday for Christians, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ and His victory over sin and death. Unfortunately, in our society, Easter is undervalued. It's not celebrated with the same fervor as Christmas: homes aren't decorated a month in advance, and families don't sing Easter songs together. Take the next week to reflect on the essence of the holiday and find effective ways for Easter evangelism.

This seven-day plan will walk you through the book of 1 Peter by reading a short passage daily. Each day is accompanied by a short video that explains what you're reading and how it's all about Jesus. In this plan, you'll learn how being an "exile" does not mean we are alone. Instead, it means we are connected to God's promises and have hope even in suffering.

The Lent Project is an initiative of Biola University's Center for Christianity, Culture and the Arts. Each daily devotion includes a portion of Scripture, a devotional, a prayer, a work of visual art or a video, a piece of music, and a poem plus brief commentaries on the artworks and artists. The Seven Last Words of Christ refers to the seven short phrases uttered by Jesus on the cross, as gathered from the four Christian gospels. This devotional project connects word, image, voice and song into daily meditations on these words.

This plan helps you trust Scripture fully, apply it accurately, and allow God’s Word to renew your mind, shape your beliefs, and guide your daily walk in truth.

A new beginning starts with letting go. God invites us to release the past—both the wins and the wounds—and fix our eyes on what He is doing now. Before the race begins, we pause, reset, and position our hearts with faith and expectation. God is already at work, making a way forward. Are you ready to step into the new thing He has prepared?
