Ever felt like your work doesn’t matter? Ever felt like your job is less important or eternally significant than the work of a pastor or “full-time missionary”? These feelings are normal in the Church today. But the good news is, they are totally unbiblical. As this four day plan will show, not only does your work matter, but it is one of the primary ways God has called you to glorify Him and love and serve your neighbors.

Christians live in light of eternity. But do we really know what heaven is? Where it is? When it is? What it will be like? And what we will do? I’m afraid many of us have settled for answers to these questions that are only half-true. In this reading plan, we’ll replace four half-truths about heaven with whole-truths that fuel our hope for our lives and work in the present.

How can we love our jobs without turning them into idols? Find out in this four-day reading plan where we’ll build a biblical, practical, and memorable framework for delighting in created things while delighting most in our Creator.

Purpose often drives us to strive harder, search longer, and aim higher—always looking for what’s next. But what if your purpose is closer than you think? In these five guided prayers from New York Times best-selling author Bruce Wilkinson and Heather Hair, you’ll be gently led to pause, listen, and lean into the calling already within you. With honesty and hope, these prayers will help you reconnect with God’s direction and pray toward your purpose with fresh clarity and confidence.

When Kim's three-year-old son passed away, she found plenty of resources on grieving. She says what she really needed, though, “was someone who would give me advice for living, not just grieving.” In this five-day devotional, Kim will share a raw vulnerability, a deep well of wisdom, and the knowledge of someone who’s been there as she walks grieving parents through the life-after-death process and surviving the sorrow of loss.

Natural disasters—such as hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, fires, tornadoes, even pandemics—often strike without warning. The shock, fear and sense of outrage can be overwhelming, leaving you feeling completely helpless and abandoned. In the midst of devastation and loss, be assured that God is with you—loving you and caring for you, “always ready to help in times of trouble” (Psalm 46:1).

Our Creator loves all of His creatures, great and small. Humanity is the height of God’s creation on the earth, and we, therefore, share a special relationship with Him. Yet all kinds of birds and beasts make an appearance throughout the pages of Scripture. Each animal mentioned in the Bible shows you and me more about the Lord’s majestic creativity, as well as highlighting His compassion toward every living thing.

When Adam and Eve first sinned, God “cursed…the ground” ensuring that “thorns and thistles” would make our work futile and frustrating until the New Earth (see Genesis 3 and Isaiah 65). We should lament over the thorns and thistles that thwart our work (see Joel 1:4-12). But we should also give thanks for them. Why? Find out in this five-day plan.

There’s a lot that we don’t know about work in heaven and on the New Earth. But there’s also a lot that we do know. In this devotional plan, we’ll unpack five under-explored biblical truths about our eternal vocation and what they mean for our work today!

Advent invites us to remember both Jesus’ first coming and to live expectantly for His return. Biblical hope is rooted not in circumstances but in the unchanging promises of God. Let's examine where our hope is fixed, to eliminate hopelessness by focusing our eyes on Jesus, and to live differently because we trust the One who is coming again. Christ is our anchor, our expectation, and the object of our hope – what a beautiful reminder of why we celebrate his birth.
