Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to 2 Corinthians 4:7

Every follower of Jesus has a job to do. In this 7-day Bible plan, you’ll explore why Jesus came, who you are in Him and how God uses ordinary people to share His extraordinary message. Through Scripture and practical encouragement, you’ll discover that evangelism isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about faithfully telling others what Jesus has done. You were made for more than just believing the gospel; you were made to tell it.

Leading worship in the local church is both a privilege and a responsibility. Each week worship leaders help guide God’s people in responding to God through song and truth. Yet what shapes this leadership is not talent or stage presence, but the condition of the heart, the depth of theology, humility, and faithful character. Over the next seven days we’ll explore seven biblical lenses for worship leaders: worshiper, theologian, shepherd, excellence, humility, unifier, and songwriter. Because before we lead others in worship, we must first learn to worship the Lord ourselves.

We all live under pressure from things like financial worries, work issues, health concerns, and family responsibilities. But Jesus tells us that His "yoke is easy and His burden is light".

As followers of Jesus, we can't avoid pressure, but we can reframe it, trusting Him to lead, and taking on His yoke instead. Let's learn to live freely and lightly in Him!

We are not called to mediocracy. We are called to boldness. To fearlessness. To purpose. To lasting impact. We are to share God's legacy, to really know Him, and make Him known.

Warning - contains many terrible egg-related puns!

It’s a question we’ve all asked in moments of grief, confusion, or suffering. Pain is never easy - and often, God feels far away. But what if He is closer than we think? In this Bible plan, we’ll take a raw and hopeful look at faith in the midst of hardship. Together, we’ll explore a biblical “theology of pain” - discovering how God meets us in suffering, how hope can rise in darkness, and how His presence carries us when life hurts the most.

Christ’s power never leaves us stagnant but propels us on to abundant life!

Life is not a controlled experiment. Life is a journey. It is my opinion that most discipleship models fail to embrace how the journey of everyday life can mature and grow us into mature followers of Christ. I suggest that we need a helpful metaphor or “parable” that can help us picture what discipleship looks like in all its colors, ups and downs, and ebbs and flows. Music can help! 

That’s Us is a devotional journey through the heartbeat of the Church - who we are, how we live, and why love defines us. Across these reflections, you’ll rediscover God’s design for His people: a family formed by grace, shaped by revelation, and sustained by forgiveness. Each devotion invites you to live out your faith not in isolation but in unity - to pray, speak life, bear with, and forgive one another. That’s Us calls the Church back to its truest identity: a community transformed by the Spirit, grounded in Scripture, and known to the world by the love we share.

Is our life progressively changing after encountering Christ? How can we build assets that last beyond life? How can we radiate joy, contentment, and peace in all situations? This, and much more, is addressed in Paul’s letters. Not only does he teach, he leads by example. As false teachings and leaders are fast penetrating, these letters rock churches into strong defense and action. Their undiluted truths continue to transform lives.

In his second letter to the church at Corinth, Paul encourages believers to live in the identity Christ has provided for them. Although as fragile and mundane as jars of clay, God’s people hold the inestimable treasure of the gospel in their lives (2 Corinthians 4:7). 2 Corinthians reminds us that we are ambassadors for Christ, tasked with showing and sharing God’s good news of reconciliation for all who believe (2 Corinthians 5:20).

Reading entire books of the Bible can feel overwhelming and challenging, especially with the stress and busyness of daily life. With short Scripture readings and deep, poetic prayers, this 13-day plan highlights Paul’s letters with excerpts from "The Whole Bible Devotional" by Melissa A. McLaughlin.

Sometimes life's difficulties cause us to feel overwhelmed, but God's Word is full of hope – hope in the gospel.
