Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to Matthew 28:1

"Caves" is a project birthed out of a difficult season for the band’s singer and Young Adults Pastor Josh McCabe. Stepping away from ministry for over a year, Caves tells the story of brokenness, uncertainty, and God’s closeness through the midst of a dry season. Join Josh and Caves on this installment of The Overflow Devo and learn more about how the word of God inspired these songs.

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!

This 7-day plan guides you through scripture and reflections on the Holy Week, preparing your heart to worship God in a fresh way on Resurrection Sunday.

This plan is designed to provide a special time alone with the Lord during Holy Week. Each day you will be prompted to pause, ponder, and pray through a passage in the Gospel of Matthew. Your heart will be encouraged, your faith strengthened, and your prayer life enriched as you prepare for Easter. May it impact your walk with the Lord for years to come.

What are you expecting right now? Are you expecting that bad things are going to happen to you, or are you expecting that God is going to show up in your life? Our fear can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. In the same way, our faith can also direct the course of our life. Fear maximizes danger, while faith maximizes God!

Do you take the time to reflect on the Holy week of Easter? We tend to focus on this special week once a year, but the events that happened on this week are relevant to us everyday. This 7-day plan will help you quietly reflect on the events of Passion week.

The happiness on Palm Sunday, the surprise at the Last Supper, the sadness at the cross, the joy at the tomb—the week of Jesus’ death and resurrection was filled with emotion. In this plan by Dr. Josh and Christi Straub, your family will journey through the key moments of Holy Week by encountering the emotions people felt during the week that changed the world.

Heaven knows what you need. We need the cross and the resurrection to bring peace, purpose, and joy to our lives. It’s from a relationship with Jesus that we can live with motivation and comfort, because we know that He goes before us in all things. Yield to His Lordship today, or surrender afresh to Him. He is worthy and knows just what you need.

Welcome to our Easter Devotional! Over the next seven days, we’ll follow the Easter story, from Jesus’ betrayal through those moments on the cross and right into that empty tomb. Day 5 & Day 7 include an activity. The devotional can be completed with or without these practical activities. Keep an eye out on these days for what's required.
