پلانی خوێندنەوەی بێبەرامبەر و بابەتی پەرستشی پەیوەست بە ئەفەسۆس 2:22

This 8-Day Bible study is one in a series of 19 others related to Making Jesus Culture. We see how to honor and worship God through all elements of culture, including the home, family, church, business, media/arts, government, and education. 

This Bible plan is part of a larger plan. While you don’t need to complete the entire plan, we encourage you to start with the first three plans in the “Consolidate Your Faith” series. Specifically, these plans will help you better understand your renewed life in Jesus, deepening your relationship with Him, and strengthening your faith.

When Jesus speaks about his ministry, He says that his goal is to give people abundant life. That’s the reason why He has come to this earth: “that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). What is this abundant, eternal life like? Let’s read what the Bible tells us about this topic.

When we pray following the Bible text, we open ourselves to the topics that God chooses. This guide contains instructions and questions that help us after reading God’s Word written in the Epistle to the Ephesians to accept the Word personally and continue talking with God. In this way, the eternal Word of God enters our everyday life and changes both us and the circumstances in which we live.

Our identity is defined by personal attributes such as character, gender and colour of skin, but also by the groups that we belong to. You may ask yourself: how do I view myself? How do others see me? The most important question however is: How does God see me? Who am I in Christ?

All of us go through life with much pain, failures, and regrets. So often, we despair of ourselves. We come to a point where we do not feel useful or worthy and also think even God will not waste His time with us. May the following Scriptures and devotions be helpful to you.

We are the church. Jesus didn’t come to start a building campaign; He came to build a family. He set us free from sin and give us a relationship with God. The same way that we don’t stop being related to our families when we leave the house, Ephesians reminds us that our relationship with God is not limited to gathering on Sunday.

This plan looks at how God's story in scripture offers a compelling case for what he desires to emerge from the turbulent stress of this season. He hasn't been silent or intimidated by recent, emotionally-depleting world events. He's as close to you as always, working to draw you into the very desire of his heart. Written by Brad Russell, Lead Pastor, Dulles Community Church.

Adapted from TruNorth Cooperative’s City Lab, this plan is designed for 20-somethings and young professionals who want to reflect deeply on gospel transformation in their own lives so they can participate in the gospel renewal of the workplaces, communities, and cities in which they live. TruNorth exists to help twenty-somethings find their bearings as they settle into life and faith in the City and is an expression of Cru City.

Millions of people worldwide live as strangers or refugees in a country that is not their own. God wants us to treat them well. The Bible also speaks about “spiritual strangers." This reading plan explains how God cares for spiritual, political, or social strangers.
