When Jesus called his disciples to follow Him, they made a commitment to discipleship in the context of community. And from that point forward, the Church has been built on this same idea. But how can broken and sinful people who disagree about so many things work together for God’s Kingdom? Join us as we explore what it means to be the church: devoted, connected, and discipled brothers and sisters.

Political hostility is tearing apart our relationships and churches. But Jesus is the Party Crasher. He is calling us to refuse to bow to partisan religions, even if we lean one way politically. As we dig into Scripture, we’ll see how he is disrupting politics-as-usual and inviting us into a grander vision for kingdom life.

Tetelestai—“It is finished.” Jesus’ final words on the Cross have impacted us for eternity. With His death and resurrection, He finished the work of our salvation. But our transformation continues. In his book 'It Is Finished', Charles Martin takes us on a journey to the Cross to examine how the Holy Spirit is now at work in us as we are continually being made “perfectly perfect.”

The gospel is the divine revelation that redemption starts with God’s plan, is tested by separation, is triumphant through Christ, and now transforms and restores us. This five-day plan describes what God accomplished in the fourth scene of His Big Picture, and the invitation He extends for us to represent Him in bringing restoration to the world.

Inspired by Rend Collective’s hit song, My Lighthouse, and the children’s book of the same name by Ali Gilkeson, this 5-day devotional invites families with young children to explore the importance of gratitude, trust, and hope in Christ and be encouraged that God is a constant light shining in our lives, guiding us home.

What would it look like to fulfill this prayer to God "that they all may be one"? One way is when we care for and carry each other – especially when we’re weary, hurting, and not the same. Join this five-day devotion of meditations on Christ, his prayer in John 17:20-21, and our being sent by Jesus to carry each other in this one life.

One cannot turn on the television, engage in social media, listen to the radio, or even attend church without witnessing some conflict.

We would like to thank Amberly Neese and FamilyLife for providing this plan. For more information visit www.familylife.com.

We recognize the importance of communication in relationships, and our relationship with God is no exception. God longs for us to communicate with him in prayer—a discipline that even His Son, Jesus, practiced. In this plan, you’ll learn from Jesus’ example, and you’ll be challenged to step out of the traffic of life and experience for yourself the strength and guidance prayer provides.
