یه‌كه‌م یوخه‌ننه‌ن 12:2-13

In this devotional series, pastor Gregg Matte take us on a passage-by-passage journey through the First Letter of John. Practical, biblical, analytical, and spiritual, this series will give a major boost to your understanding of how to live the eternal truths contained within this important book of the Bible. In this seventh reading plan of the series we will discover the three stages of maturity we can have as believers.

1 John is one of three letters written by John the Beloved, the same author as the Gospel of John and Revelation. Written as a response to false teaching in the church, John reminds his readers that just as God is both love and light, true believers are to show love and light to the world.

Near the end of his life, John, the last living apostle, wrote a Gospel. And it seems some people were distorting it. John writes to believers caught in the aftermath, bringing clarity and commentary on what he wrote. He shows them what it looks like to be people of light and life instead of people of death and darkness. This plan takes us through 1 John and how to live in the face of distorted Christianity.

In a world confused by the concept of love, but desperately in need of it, we are left wondering how to experience real love and convey it to others. This Bible Plan is for anyone who is looking to grow in their understanding of God’s love and how to love the people around them more deeply and authentically. Read through 1 John with Bible teacher, coach, and author Nicole Smithee to find (and give) the love you’ve been longing for.
