lu-kaa 12:28

We’re filled with anticipation as we lean into this season of celebration with the intention of tuning into the heart of God. Join us for four weeks as we: Behold Beauty; Break Barriers; Make Room, and are Surprised by God. Like all the best stuff in life, this journey is best taken with others—so grab a friend or two and your sense of wonder and roll into the Advent Season.

How can we personally know that God is trustworthy and has the ability, strength, and power to solve our biggest problems if we never have any? This six-day devotional is a reminder that faith in God also means faith in His ability, timing, and methods. We are being trained to trust Him.

In a crowded Christmas season, most of us feel the stress and anxiety of family relationships, financial pressure, hasty decisions, and disappointed expectations. So go ahead. Take a breath. Start this Life.Church Bible Plan and realize the weight we feel may be something God never asked us to carry. How about we let go of the baggage? Let’s travel light.

We all have a common denominator. We will die. I will die. You will die. Death will defeat you. You won’t be able to dodge it, sidestep it, trick it or make it disappear. But then there is Jesus, the man who defeated the grave. Jesus stood toe to toe with the grave and defeated death. When Jesus talks, the grave speaks.
