Isaiah 32:17

God’s Word tells us that He offers peace “which transcends all understanding” (Philippians 4:7 NIV). In this four-day study, you and your children will take a close look at the areas in our lives where we can experience that peace. Each day includes a prayer prompt, brief Scripture reading and explanation, hands-on activity, and discussion questions.

Are you searching for a peaceful life protected from the chaos of your world? Do you desire a life where everything runs smoothly, without interruptions or disputes? We all do, but this idea is far from our reality. In this 5-day plan discover that peace isn’t the absence of problems or difficulties. Peace is the presence of Jesus. Peace is a Person.

In Judaism, peace—shalom—is rooted in the Hebrew word shalem, which means “whole” or “complete.” True shalom implies that diverse parties purposely set aside their differences and agree to see the good in one another, not just living alongside but among one another for a higher calling or purpose. This devotional plan explores 12 different steps we can all take toward achieving shalom in our lives.

Women are a precious gift from God to the world. You are creative, compassionate, intelligent, and, according to the Bible, equal to men. But years of abuse and wrong views of women have caused many of you to lose the confidence God wants you to enjoy. You may feel that you're somehow "less" than men. Less valuable. Less worthy. The truth is, you are very valuable to society, but more importantly to God. God wants you to be courageous, respected, admired, promoted, sought after, and most of all, loved. And you can be! This daily devotional will guide you toward a confident life filled with love, laughter and His acceptance. Write on it. Highlight it. Make the journey your own.
