Matthew 8:19

Jesus is perfect. But churches are filled with Christians who are still on the way to resemble him. It is therefore possible that you have been hurt by Christians. I want to help you overcome these wounds so that you can live connected to the body of Christ and not fall into the trap of isolation and bitterness.

This 4-day devotional is based on the song, "The Case For Christ" by JT Murrell from the album, The Case For Christ: Songs Inspired By The Original Motion Picture. This plan explores the scriptures behind the album's opening anthem. The song "The Case For Christ" was written by Matt Toney.

“Burnout can be defined as a loss of enthusiasm, energy, idealism, perspective, and purpose; it has been described as trying to run a marathon at full speed.” ― Kathleen Kendall-Tackett Ph.D. Jesus promised to give rest to people in that condition. In this plan, we can find a real solution to this problem that is affecting almost everyone in our hectic world. Enjoy it!

This reading plan from Scarlet Hiltibidal is an invitation to give up your striving, to accept that you are the worst, to embrace that you are poor in spirit, and to receive the perfect love from the very best: Jesus. God’s offering to us—the broken, the hopeless, the try-hards, and the imperfect—leads us to humility, repentance, and dependence on Jesus as our Savior. That’s where we find freedom and joy.
