Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to Ephesians 2:14

Preparing for Christmas takes on many different forms for us all. Although we might become entangled by the flurry of decorating, family, cooking, or wrapping gifts, we must not miss the true celebration. Since the sixth century, Advent has served as a time of preparation for the event of Christmas. It reminds us to prepare our hearts as well as our homes for the glorious celebration of Christ’s birth. The hymn writer said, “Let every heart prepare Him room.” Truly, we must set aside time and make room for the Prince of Peace to reign in our busy lives. He alone is the One who brings true hope, love, joy, and peace.

The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is a yearly reminder of Jesus’ prayer for his disciples that “they may be one so that the world may believe” (see John 17.21). The theme for the week of prayer in 2018, "Your right hand, O Lord, glorious in power" is inspired by Exodus 15:6. 

Generational sin is real, and it can be difficult to move from hurt to healing. This 9-day plan aims to help you cling to Jesus in your home, to start a new legacy for your family, and build a stronger faith to fight the temptation of generational sin.

When Jesus preached the Sermon on the Mount, He began by showing what it means to be blessed in the kingdom of God. In this 9-day devotional from Skye Jethani, he looks with fresh eyes and illustrations to understand what it would mean if we took Jesus' words seriously. This plan is based on Skye's new book "What if Jesus Was Serious?"

When Jesus speaks about his ministry, He says that his goal is to give people abundant life. That’s the reason why He has come to this earth: “that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). What is this abundant, eternal life like? Let’s read what the Bible tells us about this topic.

When we pray following the Bible text, we open ourselves to the topics that God chooses. This guide contains instructions and questions that help us after reading God’s Word written in the Epistle to the Ephesians to accept the Word personally and continue talking with God. In this way, the eternal Word of God enters our everyday life and changes both us and the circumstances in which we live.

Our identity is defined by personal attributes such as character, gender and colour of skin, but also by the groups that we belong to. You may ask yourself: how do I view myself? How do others see me? The most important question however is: How does God see me? Who am I in Christ?

The following devotionals were written to help you in your spiritual journey. Each article has been selected to help you understand more about God's love for you, and we hope that through these pages you will find encouragement, comfort, and true joy this Christmas season.

We are the church. Jesus didn’t come to start a building campaign; He came to build a family. He set us free from sin and give us a relationship with God. The same way that we don’t stop being related to our families when we leave the house, Ephesians reminds us that our relationship with God is not limited to gathering on Sunday.

Join us as we read about the transformation of the heart, a revelation of God’s purpose, and gifts of the Spirit that are given freely to those who love Him. It is His will for us to find hope, and the glory of His inheritance. God gives us a reason to dream about the greatness of His power.
