Taken from Kara's utterly transparent book The Hardest Peace, journey with Kara Tippetts as she struggles with suffering and sickness in the form of cancer. Kara doesn't offer answers for when living is hard, but rather she asks us to join her in moving away from fear and control toward peace, grace, and God's amazing love.

Life doesn’t always go the way we expected. You pray with faith, but God doesn’t do what you asked. You seek Him but don’t feel His presence. You’re going through pain, but your cries for relief seem to go unanswered. This Life.Church Bible Plan will guide you through Scriptures to read When God Doesn’t Make Sense.

How do we know we're forgiven when we mess up? How do we receive the power for living a new life every day? How do we enjoy a deep, personal connection with God? The same way we got started - by God's grace. Find out how you can live in freedom, purpose, and joy, just as God intended. Experience the full benefits of the simple gospel, simply by grace.

In our busy lives, suffering is considered an unwelcome guest. But could suffering really be a blessing from God? Because Christ suffered, we should also expect to suffer as we live for him. God will sustain us in our suffering and will use our suffering as a means to help us grow into the Christian he needs us to be in order to impact his world.

Suffering can be perplexing. God’s people—and even Jesus himself—have often asked the “Why?” question when facing suffering. Scripture pulls back the curtain to reveal some, though not all, of God’s purposes in permitting suffering to enter our lives. Through it all, we are called to persevere faithfully, resting in the assurance of ultimate victory and eternal reward.

While anxiety and stress are a natural part of life, they can become overwhelming, especially for families facing challenges such as serious illness, financial collapse, raising children with special needs, or caring for aging parents. God gave us human emotions, but he does not want them to enslave us. He offers Christians the courage to overcome stress and model his love to a hurting world.

My passion is to see ordinary followers of Jesus grow into natural prayers who talk to God, listen to God, and interact with God at all times, in all places, through all circumstances. To do this, we will all need to learn how to pray with our eyes wide open, our ears wide open, our hearts wide open—our lives wide open! Come spend seven days learning how.

This seven-day devotional will teach you the art of praying through Scripture as you address the subject of anxiety. When we pray Scripture, we ask God to make the words of these ancient Spirit-filled authors true in our hearts and minds; we borrow these powerful words and questions as a means of drawing personally closer to God.

According to the Gallup Poll millions of people around the world have had near-death experiences where they clinically died but modern medicine resuscitated them. Those who glimpsed the afterlife knew there was a border or boundary they could not cross and still return, so their stories should never form our theological framework of eternity. They only got a small glimpse and only Scripture can give the bigger picture. But these testimonies help us answer God’s command to imagine Heaven—to set our minds on the magnificent promises of eternity in a way that changes how we live today. May this devotional help bring more of the peace and joy of Heaven into your life each day this week.

This week, we’re going to see together how to experience divine acceleration. When God accelerates things in our lives, it’s to bring us further, cause us to enter into His plan. Over the next several days, we will discover the behaviors and attitudes that facilitate acceleration. I hope that you will be blessed throughout these days!

The amazing grace that we receive through Jesus Christ our Savior empowers us to live a Christian life in every circumstance. This plan will guide you through aspects of grace in a theological, biblical, and practical way. Because of God’s amazing grace, we are saved, and because of his amazing grace, we can walk in faithfulness and obedience to Jesus.

No joy compares with realizing that we are truly known and still truly loved. Yet many of us hide our real selves from our spouse because we fear being rejected in such an intimate relationship.

In the middle of crisis and uncertainty, many of us are itching to get back to normal. But what if it’s time to create a better normal instead? In this 7-day Bible Plan, we’ll discover how to stop seeking control and start seeking God.

Corrie came from a Bible-believing family. The Bible had a central place in their lives. The Living Word of God: the Lord Jesus Christ, spoke to them through the written Word of God. They read the Bible on a daily basis and knew many Bible verses by heart. These devotionals may help you to see the significance and application of these verses in your own life as well.

How do you feel when you see someone who struggles with sin? Do you feel grateful that you are not in their situation? The notorious Pharisee of Luke 18 felt the same way. In this Plan, we will learn to examine ourselves for signs of pride disguised as godly traits or actions. Join me as we learn how to be truly humble in Christ!

Jesus healed the blind, the sick, and even raised a man from the grave while He was on earth - and we serve the same God today! Each of us carries burdens and worries that feel impossible. Yet, they are not impossible for our healing God! Spend time with Casting Crowns over the next 7 days diving into what God can do in your own life.

What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Or not? In this Plan, we will explore how our own will and imaginary strength often stand in the way of God’s power. “Each time He said, ‘My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness’” (2 Corinthians 12:9, NLT).

A common topic for men these days is men's physical and mental health, and how they impact our spiritual health. We live in a world that seems far more open to this conversation than in generations past. This week, as we look at stories of the men of the Bible and examine Scripture's teaching on physical and mental health, we will be able to discern God’s truth and grow in our spiritual health as well. Written by Brad Klassen.

In a culture where conflict is so widespread, it is understandable why the Church is not exempt, and neither will we be immune to its effects and consequences. In this devotional, men will examine 2 Corinthians to see how Paul was a genius at finding another Christlike way through conflict. Written by Dean Brenton.

Shame is the feeling that you are no good. It makes us feel unloved and unlovable, and it sucks the life out of us, demotivating a man completely with its hopelessness. Shame is a heavy weight, and as strong as men are, we aren't meant to carry it. But God promises that shame is not meant to be a part of the Christian man's life. This week, we will grapple with the weighty topic of shame and learn how God sets men free from its grip. Written by Chris Walker

Most of us prefer comfort, certainty, and the freedom to live life on our own terms. But if you walk with God long enough, you will discover that purpose often requires doing hard things. In this 7-day devotional, you will explore how difficult assignments can become the very spaces where God forms you, empowers you, and reveals His purpose for your life. Through scripture and honest reflections, you will learn how to recognize divine assignments, seek the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, and step confidently into the influence God has designed for you—even when the journey feels hard.

Pain, fear, sin... these don't have to run your life. Discover who God made you to be with practical steps and empowered encouragement, because hope changes everything. (This plan adapted from the book Hope Changes Everything by Lance Lang.)

Throughout this Bible plan, we will be figuring out together what it means to be a generation of young people who know what it is to follow Jesus and STAND FIRM in our faith. We explored this at DTI’s summer festival in 2024, and we have broken it down into this eight-day Bible plan.
