Are you a father? Want to know more about God, your heavenly Father? I’d love to share with you some recent lessons I learned from interacting with my young son. If you’re a dad yourself you’ll probably relate to these stories. As you read, you’ll see the analogy in each story and feel the power of God as your Father. Then let the daily Bible readings drive the lessons home.

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.

James’ letter to the church is loved for the practical advice it offers us. But there is something much greater in James’ letter: good news about a God who saves. Join us on this seven day plan to see how James preaches the gospel to us, calling us to live transformed lives that come from God’s generous gift of wisdom.

King Solomon was known for his wisdom. We may think of wisdom as knowing a bunch of facts, but Scripture says Solomon asked for a “listening heart” (1 Kings 3:9). He desired a heart that could clearly hear the Lord’s direction. Wisdom is about having a receptive heart to the Spirit’s promptings. Listening to God always starts with opening our Bibles to hear what his Word has to say.

The light and love of Jesus meet the world’s deep need—and we can participate in bringing his light to our communities and relationships. In these devotionals, pastor and former NFL player Derwin Gray encourages us to become everyday missionaries, offering good news to those around us.

Jesus didn’t separate evangelism from discipleship – He discipled people to faith. And if we want to disciple people to faith, too, there’s no one better to teach us than Jesus Himself. In this seven-day reading plan, Dale Stephenson walks us through Jesus’ simple but powerful disciple-making process, showing us every step of the way so that anyone, anywhere, anytime can go and do likewise.

Jesus’ financial advice goes far beyond getting and giving, to every facet of living. And as God continues to increase your faith, see more and more how he really will do immeasurably more than you could have asked or imagined. See how Jesus’ financial advice turns from terrible to terrific as he flips the tables on everything we thought we knew about peace, prosperity, and the pursuit of happiness.

No matter how busy life gets, making space to spend time with the Lord gives Him the opportunity to transform your heart and renew your spirit. This reading plan provides 8 devotions based on the book "52-Week Devotional for Women: Prayers and Reflections to Strengthen your Relationship with God," by Natasha Brown Watson. Grow closer to God with devotions, reflections, and prayer.

Ever wonder “What’s my purpose?” or “Why do bad things happen?” Jesus has answers for these and many more “essential questions of life.” Learn how Jesus unravels life’s biggest questions, and leads you to find your hope, meaning, and purpose in life. (Devotions written by Rick Lawrence; taken from the Jesus-Centered Bible—jesuscenteredbible.com.)

James wrote: "... if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like.” (James 1:23-24 NLT) The Pharisees thought they were obeying the word. I wonder, could this be us? Are we Pharisees? You’re invited to gaze afresh, ditch religion, and grow in the childlike intimacy God desires and adores.

Right from the beginning, in the creation story, God shows us a pattern which contains a huge lesson. And this lesson continues throughout the Bible. Jesus shows up on the scene and points to this same lesson. As long as heaven remains, seed time and harvest will continue. This plan focuses on seed, planting, and watering. A key principle of the kingdom of God and therefore, to every believer after God’s heart.

Mark is all about Jesus! This 13-day plan will walk you through the book of Mark by reading only 1-2 chapters a day. Each day is accompanied by a short devotional and video that explains what’s happening and shows you how each part of the story points to Jesus and his Gospel.

We often associate the word stewardship with money. While it’s true that we’re called to be good stewards of our finances, stewardship certainly doesn’t end with our bank accounts. In this plan, you’ll be challenged to consider the connection between stewardship and commitment, and you’ll be inspired to elevate your relationship with God to the top of your priority list. Each day’s reading includes a brief Scripture passage and relevant devotional.

The Gospel of Mark presents Jesus as the Son of God and the perfect servant of God. This 14-day reading plan invites readers specifically into the teachings of Jesus as chronicled by Mark, a close disciple of the Apostle Peter. Starting with the baptism of Jesus and carrying the reader through to the importance and symbolism of Christ’s last meal, the reader will be visually transported into these important moments in Jesus’ history. Experience these teachings come-to-life in this video-based, 14-day reading plan and allow it to revolutionize the way you engage with God’s Word.

This reading plan explores the second Gospel. The persecution of Christians was on Mark's mind as he wrote this Gospel. Mark told the story of Jesus' life in ways that strengthened the faith of early Christians and encouraged them to persevere through suffering.

Mark uses the word “immediately” over forty times in his Gospel, emphasizing the intentional nature of Jesus’ ministry. The quick succession of healings and miracles shows that Jesus “came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:44). Through Mark’s Gospel, we are reminded that true greatness in God’s kingdom comes not through selfish ambition, but by being the servant of all.

Who is Jesus? It’s a question people have been wrestling with for 2,000 years with an answer that has the power to change your life forever. In part two of a seven-part devotional journey through the Gospel of Mark, we’ll examine Mark 2:18–5:20.

Jesus provided healing for us just as much as forgiveness through His finished work of the Cross. God has not made this difficult to receive but a simple faith that focuses on seeing Jesus and what He has already done for you, positions you for the power of God that is enough to heal 'every kind of sickness and every kind of disease'.

Daily Bible reading plan with four daily reading passages in four categories: Old Testament History, Old Testament Poetry/Prophecy, New Testament Narrative, and New Testament Epistle. Created by Indian Hills Community Church.

Be strong. Be Alert. Be Courageous. These words are the premise of this 30 day study where you will uncover God's desire for you to call out to Him and trust He will hear. Not only hear, but set you on sure footing, a path He sets before you, for your sake and the sake of those around you. From there you will dig into Scripture around what it means to courageously step into God's presence, how to do so, and what you can expect as a result of going into His presence. Finally, you will be encouraged to step towards the healing Christ offers, both individually, and as the collective Bride of Christ. Each day you will be encouraged to ask questions, seek answers in God and His Word, and identify the step YOU sense the Holy Spirit compelling you to take. Courage accompanies ACTION, and Christ reveals to us where to move next, while the Holy Spirit empowers us to do so!
