We have three enemies, the world, the flesh, and the deceiver. In the book of Joshua, Jericho represents the world. God trained Israel in the wilderness, baptized them in the Jordan, and circumcised them as they camped before the locked gates of Jericho. How would they overcome Jericho?

Are you feeling purposeless in life? Do you think you were made for more? This Bible plan is meant to connect you to your Maker, the only one who truly knows your purpose. Once connected to Him, He begins to use us in ways we may never have dreamed of and with a passion we didn’t know we were capable of until then.

All of us are born with a problem: we all have sinned, which has separated us from a relationship with God. That’s where Jesus comes in! God gave Jesus as a gift to take away our sins—forever. Everything that was necessary to take away your sins, release you from shame and guilt, and rescue you from death has been accomplished by Jesus on the cross!

We often hear the phrase “born again,” but what does that mean? Does being born again last forever or do we have to be born another time if we fail? Whether you have been a Christ-follower for many years or are simply curious about what spiritual rebirth means, you’ll discover enriching truths in this week’s exploration of finding new life in Christ.

Our self-help, DIY culture naturally loves the idea of improvement, but it’s never-quite-enough. That's because we don’t need a renovation; we need a rebirth—an upending of our lives—and that’s something we can’t do ourselves. If you're tired of going through religious motions in your own power and long to experience the heart and life change Jesus promised, it's time to encounter Jesus. It's time to be reborn.

As we humbly approach each season of Easter / Resurrection remembrance and celebration, it should lead us to contemplate anew all that God The Father accomplished through Jesus His Son so we might have salvation and life in and through Him. The aim of this 7-Day devotional is to help lead us in a time of meaningful contemplation as we study the seven significant sayings of Jesus on The Cross.

You may have asked, "But what about my sin? How could God want a personal relationship with me?" "He knows my past, He knows what I’m struggling with right now. How could he ever want to be around someone like me?" "Shouldn’t I come back later, after I get myself all fixed up?"... These are great questions, and the truth will blow your mind. Think bigger!

This is a plan that talks about God's heart for global missions. It looks through scripture where God calls us to reach the unreached and talks about God's heart for the nations. This 7-day plan will explore how we as Christians should engage in God's plan to reach the world.

Being generous is not always about money. Also, just because you are a giver does not mean you have a generous spirit, it’s about the heart and it’s about following God’s example. In this 7-day Bible Plan featuring videos, we’ll encourage you to be generous to others and to yourself. We’ll discuss your gifts, time, talents, forgiveness and you will learn the benefits of having a generous spirit.

This series, that began with faith and hope (see You Version … Faith – In other Words, and Hope Reframed), is written to help re-frame, re-define, and re-fresh the great biblical themes of faith, hope and love. I hope you are inspired - to have faith, to live in hope, and to express love. “So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.”
