Xa̱bo̱ Éfe̱so̱ 2:8-9

What is baptism? Should I get baptized? Why is it important? Do I have to get baptized to be a Christian? Whether you have questions about baptism or you’re simply looking for a short devotional to read before or after being baptized, this Life.Church Bible Plan is perfect for starting today. 

Have you lost your job? Are you not where you thought you would be at this point in your life and career? Is your business not going as well as you had hoped? Take heart, believer! Know that you are not alone. Adversity and failure are inevitable as we take risks in this life. As the Scriptures in this plan will reveal, our response to failure can be one of the most powerful means of sanctification and preaching the gospel to those around us.

God has given all of us a gift so amazing and so incredible that most people don’t know what to do with it. This gift is grace, and in this plan, Dr. Tony Evans teaches about the grace of God and how all encompassing it truly is.

Our minds and schedules are so preoccupied that we’ve forgotten how to rest. And when we fail to rest we do more than burn ourselves out—we misunderstand the God who calls us to rest and created us to be people of rest. So when we learn the art of sabbath keeping, we learn to rest and we learn about the One who gives us rest.
