Old Testament Books

Have you ever felt lost in the confusing and terrible parts of life, wondering where God is? In this 5-day plan, we'll discover that we can find God in the messiest chapters of our stories. Exploring Jacob's journey in Genesis 34-35, we'll learn to find God in the chaos, trust in His faithfulness when life seems unmanageable, and embrace our part in His story of redemption. Whether you're facing family conflicts, struggling with your identity, or stuck in a difficult chapter, this plan offers hope, showing that your story is intertwined with God's unfailing narrative of love.

The Story Did Not End There

Is love enough to nurture and sustain a healthy marriage? Over the course of this three-day plan, we'll explore three Bible-based principles to help your marriage thrive. Whether you're preparing for marriage or looking to deepen your connection with your partner, this plan offers helpful tools and inspiring insights to support you on your journey. 

It Is for Love

Genesis is the beginning of God’s story with humanity and an invitation to see His faithfulness, power, and grace from the very start. This Bible plan is designed for new believers and seasoned readers alike, offering short daily devotionals that help you understand what you’re reading and why it matters. Each day includes a simple “Respond to God’s Word” question to move you from reading into reflection and real-life application. Come with an open heart and expect God to speak because His Word doesn’t just inform us, it transforms us.

Genesis: Chapter by Chapter

No one casually calls others their friends; how much more God? Only a few people came close to being called God's friend. But God Himself referred to only one man as His friend. From this man, we will examine how a person can become a friend of God. Being God's friend is not a casual description, but a deep relational picture of God and people. It is a picture of what is possible to believers in Christ.

Becoming God's Friend

What does it truly mean to be human? This 7-day reading plan explores the biblical vision of humanity—created in the image of God, body and soul united, and restored through Jesus. Through extended Scripture readings and reflection, you’ll be invited to see yourself and others with renewed dignity, purpose, and hope.

HUMAN

Genesis is all about Jesus! This 24-day plan will walk you through the book of Genesis by reading just a few 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.

Jesus in All of Genesis - A Video Devotional

When anxiety attacks, what should be our response? As we continue our trek through the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gives us the answer in the conclusion of chapter 6: “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33 ESV). In “Seek First”, we’re going to walk through Matthew 6:25–7:11 and take a closer look at four things we’re often tempted to pursue before Jesus. Prayerfully, as we study God’s Word together, our worry will be replaced with a desire to seek Him first!

Seek First

For millennia, God’s people have been carrying out a weekly Bible study plan. Every year, they read through the Torah from Genesis to Deuteronomy. In synagogue each week, they read and study a Bible passage—the weekly parshah. This week’s parshah is called “Vayishlach,” which is Hebrew for “and he sent,” and covers Genesis 32:4-36:43.

And He Sent

God created human beings in His image, but mankind quickly spoiled the world with sin. As in the ruins of a long-abandoned Highland castle, there is merely a memory of former glory in humanity. The story of the Gospel tells us that a new man has come to stamp us anew with God’s image so that we can live as God desires.

(Re)made in His Image

For millennia, God’s people have been carrying out a weekly Bible study plan. Every year, they read through the Torah from Genesis to Deuteronomy.

And He Left

Journey through the opening chapters of Genesis and discover a God who creates with purpose, pursues with grace, and calls His people to live by faith. This plan walks through humanity’s beginnings — from creation and fall to promise and calling — with daily devotionals and built-in reflection days to help you pause, process, and apply what you’re learning. Whether you’re seeking deeper trust, renewed worship, or clarity in your next step of obedience, this plan invites you to walk with God from the very beginning.

Beginnings: The Story That Shapes Everything

If you want simple, practical clarity as you read Scripture, this plan will help you trust God in every season.

Genesis: The God Who Keeps His Word (Genesis 12-25)

And He Appeared

In Genesis 1, we rediscover the awe-inspiring story of creation and our place within it. God’s immense power and creativity challenge us to expand our view of who He is. The universe is not chance but purposeful design by an eternal, intimately involved Creator. This truth grounds our identity, shapes our purpose, and calls us to run toward Him in hardship. From peacocks to sunsets, creation’s beauty urges praise, revealing His fingerprints in every corner of the world.

For millennia, God’s people have been carrying out a weekly Bible study plan. Every year, they read through the Torah from Genesis to Deuteronomy. In synagogue each week, they read and study a Bible passage—the weekly parshah. This week’s parshah is called “Toldot,” which is Hebrew for “generations,” and covers Genesis 25:19-28:9.

Generations

"In the beginning . . ." These words are familiar even if you haven't read the Bible before. They take you to the start of the story—and the start of the Bible is the beginning of creation and the beginning of God's holy and loving relationship with us. Over 16 days, read through the book of Genesis and learn how the story of God and his people began. Adapted from Words of Hope's Read the Bible in a Year.

In the Beginning: Reading Through Genesis

Genesis

Moses was the "savior" that God had appointed to rescue his people from slavery in Egypt. But Moses was born under a decree of death! Pharaoh commanded that all the male children of Israel must be thrown into the Nile River. However, God delivered the infant Moses through the waters of death and raised him up to the royal house of Pharaoh in a glorious picture of resurrection! Discover how the birth of Moses anticipated the coming of the True Savior, Jesus, who also escaped a king's decree of death as an infant! 

Watermark Gospel | the Birth of Moses

No matter how good we look to others, the nagging voice of self-doubt is hard to shake. We wonder: If people really knew me would they still accept me? Will I be rejected when I can't perform? What if I end up alone?
If you find yourself having thoughts like these, join Erica Wiggenhorn for 5 days in the story of Moses and find what happens when we surrender.

Letting God Be Enough: Why Striving Keeps You Stuck & How Surrender Sets You Free

The story of the Israel's rescue from Egyptian slavery becomes one of the defining stories for the people of God. In this fourteen-day plan, you'll see how God rescues his people from oppression, then seeks to restore his presence among them through a covenant relationship and the temple. 

BibleProject | The Great Escape

The book of Exodus chronicles the Israelites' rescue from Egypt, deliverance from slavery, and establishment of the tabernacle in the wilderness. In Exodus, we see the premier covenantal promise of God is the reality of his presence among His people, leading, guiding, and directing them towards holiness in Him.

Deliverance: A Study In Exodus

Exodus is one of history's greatest epics, and Moses one of its greatest heroes. Movies have been made, books written, and the entire Bible refers back to the events in this book. Join Through the Word as we guide you chapter by chapter through the unfolding drama of God's great rescue mission, with clear explanation and compelling audio in just minutes each day. Part 1 covers chapters 1-13.

Exodus

When life doesn’t go as we planned, we have a tendency to doubt that God is with us. Thousands of years ago, the Israelites had the same fears as they  wandered for a generation in the desert, longing for the land of milk and honey that God promised. In this week’s devotional, Meredith McDaniel reminds us through the Israelites’ journey how God provides in the times we need him most.

In Want + Plenty by Meredith McDaniel

And....End Scene! The end of our study in Exodus. The final chapters of Exodus are the final scenes of an epic story of freedom, promise, covenant, details 
and ultimately God’s unconditional love for His people. As we finish our study on Exodus (see previous editions of the Real Hope devotional) our hope is 
that you will not only reflect on all you have learnt as we have journeyed through this amazing book of the Bible, but that you will also see God’s heart for His people, and His heart for you.

Real Hope: A Study in Exodus

Exodus shows us the Lord is deserving of our trust and obedience as we watch Him deliver Israel from Egypt, provide for them, forgive them, and develop a relationship with them.

Wisdom for Work From the Exodus

In Part 2 of Leviticus, God calls his people to separate themselves from the world and be holy, set apart for Him. It’s a powerful book. It’s also - if we’re honest - a little dry. But fret not!

Bible Explorer for the Young (Leviticus)

The last chapter of Exodus ends with an interesting detail – Moses can’t enter the tent of meeting because it is filled with God’s glory. God’s presence is so holy that even Moses can’t come near! Therefore, God must sanctify Moses and His people for holiness, and this is what Leviticus is about. Leviticus means “And He Called”. God calls us to repentance and a lifelong journey of holiness.
