If you are weary or uncertain, this plan invites you to rest in the life you already share with Him.

If there is one thing this world never offers us, it’s lasting peace. The peace you need, the kind that’s lasting and deep and eternal, is only available by believing in Jesus who died on the cross to bring us close to God. In him you'll find true, lasting, perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3).

Join us for this exciting guided reading plan: Romans - Practical Righteousness. Romans explains the Gospel and empowers us as believers to live transformed lives. Instead of just lecturing, Paul anticipates the "Yes, but..." questions his listeners are already thinking, and answers the questions we are struggling with. This is an eight-week plan where each day in the plan refers to a week (Day 1 = Week 1). Each week's plan includes a reading plan, as well as an outline to guide you. Trust the Lord to speak to you and guide you as you read this powerful book.

Where do godless mockers, wicked sinners, and religious hypocrites meet? In the book of Romans, they meet at one place: the love of Christ. Romans lays out the gospel, the radical message of God’s love for everyone. Romans takes on controversial topics and challenging questions with clarity and compassion, and Through the Word guides you through it in just five minutes per day. Part 1 covers Romans 1-3.

The Bible is clear about it: we humans are sinful and deserve punishment. But, the Bible also explains that God offers forgiveness if we confess and turn away from our sins. God also enables us to forgive ourselves and others, which is very freeing and helps us to restore relationships. This reading plan discusses some key Bible verses about receiving and giving forgiveness.

Even though the offer of freedom is available to all, many still live in bondage. The key to unlocking your freedom is the forgiveness that Jesus has already won for you. Bring all of your sin, your guilt, and your shame to Jesus and experience this gift of grace in your life. A forgiven person is a forgiving person. So come. Be free.

Have you ever thought, “I’m not good enough?” What about any of these other thoughts? I’m not worthy of being a Christian. Other people are better Christians than I am. I’m the worst sinner ever.

Many believers, even after putting their faith in Christ, still live under the weight of guilt and condemnation. They remain unsure of their acceptance before God. They do not understand that faith in Christ brings the righteousness of God as a gift. So they continue to search for means to earn righteousness. Yet righteousness is not a reward to achieve, but a gift to receive. If you struggle with guilt, shame and condemnation, these reflections will help you see how the gift of righteousness enables you to live above guilt and above the power of sin.
