John

In this plan you will be blessed to read through several verses of the book of  John, chapter 15. Jesus knew His time with His 12 disciples was coming to an end but had a bigger plan not just for them but for all of us. We were called to follow Christ and walk with Him even in this time and age. Jesus tells us through a beautiful analogy that He is the vine and we are His branches. We are connected to Him, an extension of His good news, and we will bear fruit if we choose to remain in Him. Becoming disciples is His desire for His children and glorifies the Father. 

Becoming Disciples 

Jesus used practical and creative stories to explain the kingdom of God. A short video illustrates one of Jesus’ teachings for each day of the nine-part plan.

In the "Everything You Need" Bible study, we’re going to take a closer look at John 15 as Jesus speaks to four specific topics that often make us fearful when we think about the future. Prayerfully, as we learn to abide in Christ as He abides in us, we will find freedom from the fear of tomorrow and confidently embrace the Purpose He has for us today!

Everything You Need

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this wisdom-filled and timely devotional. Every branch in Christ that does not bear fruit — He taketh away. Why have you stopped bearing fruit? Who told you to stop producing fruit? Keep producing His Fruit. Keep moving forward in Christ. Walk in obedience. Keep moving forward in what God has Called you to do. 

Bring Forth More Fruit

This devotional will take you through daily readings to read through the book of John. We encourage you to read each chapter using the S.O.A.P. Method (Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer).

Scripture - Read the scripture
Observation - What stuck out to you from what you read?

Daily Bible Reading – April 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word Of Hope

Near the end of his life, John was the last of the living apostles and wrote a story about Jesus. It’s his testimony of who Jesus is, what he said, what he did, and who he claimed to be. Jesus has a story. He invites us to make it our story. When we make Jesus’s story our story, we have life in his name. This plan focuses on Jesus’s final moments and words with his disciples, preparing them for his crucifixion to come. It is Jesus’s last will & testament.  This plan focuses on the first half of Jesus's words in John 15 and is part of an ongoing series.

Last Will & Testament: The Last Apostle | John 15:1-17

In the “What Do You Want From Me?” Bible study, we’re going to take a closer look at Peter's redemption in John 21 and discover five things Jesus wants from His followers: 1. Humility; 2. Time; 3. Love; 4. Boldness; 5. Contentment. Prayerfully, this study will serve as a reminder for faithful disciples of Jesus as well as a roadmap for those seeking a deeper relationship with Him!

What Do You Want From Me?

One of the most profound miracles recorded in the Bible is when Jesus raises Lazarus from death. This story is rich in symbolism and shows both the humanity and divinity of Christ. Jesus knew Lazarus and his family intimately—they were His dear friends. In this story, each of these individuals is experiencing death. Lazarus was dead physically, while Martha and Mary were grieving the loss of their brother and experiencing the death of hope and expectation. Jesus meets each of them personally and displays His resurrection power in every area of their lives. Join me in this five-day plan and let’s see how the resurrection power of Christ can make us alive to new life in Him.
