We all have emotions that compete for control of our lives. And those emotions can get us in trouble when we let them be the boss of us. In this 7-day reading plan, Andy Stanley shares a scriptural “how-to” about saying no to destructive emotions. We need to monitor our hearts—not just our behavior—to prevent emotions like guilt, envy, fear, and anger from bossing us around.

You're Not the Boss of Me

Lent: a 40-day season of reflection and repentance. It’s a nice thought, but what does practicing Lent actually look like? Over the next 7 days, discover five spiritual habits you can start doing during Lent to help you prepare your heart for Resurrection Sunday—and beyond.

Make Space for What Matters: 5 Spiritual Habits for Lent

Lent for Everyone is a devotional created and written by N.T. (Tom) Wright. For each day of Lent, there is a reading chosen from the Gospel of Matthew, plus a reflection by Wright. These readings have grown out of a project encouraging Lent reading in Northern England. This is the second in a three-volume series based on the Revised Common Lectionary of the Church of England.

Lent For Everyone

What is Lent? It is a time in which we anticipate the victory of the light and life of Christ over the darkness of sin and death. As we journey from Ash Wednesday to Easter, we are reminded of the reality of our frailty and God’s redeeming grace. 

Preparing Our Hearts for Easter: A Lenten Devotional

During the time before and after Jesus' crucifixion, God used some unlikely people to proclaim truths about Jesus and God's salvation plan. 

Unlikely Lenten Preachers

Walk with Jesus for 40 days on His journey to the cross. 

Walking With Jesus 

Lent has always been a time to turn our attention to all that has been done for us on the cross in Christ. This lavish gift can be meditated on year after year, and still would leave us to wonder in amazement. Through this reading plan, you will walk through the gospel accounts in chronological order, tracing the steps of Jesus during his last week of his earthly ministry. This plan is 47 days in length, but the seven Sundays are days of rest according to tradition.

40 Days of Lent

‘Journeying With Jesus’ is a Bible plan to help us walk with Jesus through the last two chapters of Matthew. We stop to focus on Jesus' last days on this earth and what that means to us. How does that change who I am and Whose I am today? We will take time to dwell on Scripture and “bring it home” with questions that make us consider where we are on the journey of knowing Jesus.

This devotion (taken from Book of James) will equip you with biblical truths, and guide you to practice it daily as you continue your walk of faith in Christ.


Book of James

The letter of James challenges, confronts and dives deep into what it means to be a Christ-follower. In this plan, we will dive deep into the wisdom that this letter brings forward. My prayer for you is that this letter will be a mirror to your soul as Christ is revealed through the Word of God.

Wisdom From James

This 7 Day devotional will remind and invite you to Come Closer to God! A major theme of the Bible is that Jesus loves us and gave everything to bridge the great divide caused by sin so that we could come close again! Let's get into it!

COME CLOSER

The repeated cry of James is that faith apart from works can never be sustained. We should proclaim this truth because faith makes us doers of the Word, not just hearers. Faith keeps us humble, not proud; directs our tongues to bless, not to curse. Faith causes us to preach the good news to every tribe, tongue, and nation. This is the message of James: Faith/Works. Join Matt Chandler for 13 days going verse-by-verse through the book of James.  

James: Faith/Works

In this seven-day plan, you’ll encounter the themes of the new covenant and new wisdom for New Testament believers. Hebrews compares and contrasts Jesus to key Old Testament figures, showing how he is superior and the ultimate revelation of God’s love and mercy. The book of James is one-of-a-kind in the New Testament, sharing wisdom sayings, much like the book of Proverbs, with followers of Jesus.

BibleProject | New Covenant, New Wisdom

No one reads the book of James and thinks, “So what does that have to do with me?” Unlike many of the New Testament letters that were written to one specific church, James is writing instructions to Christians all over. During this 14-day plan, we will be challenged and encouraged by the book of James’ practical and timely message.

A Little God Time For Kids

Who said you can’t flourish in hard times? Not the Bible! Why? Because God expects His children to trust Him as their Provider and Caregiver. Over 3,000 years ago, Ruth, a widowed Moabite refugee, experienced God’s miraculous provision of home and engrafting into the Messianic line. A shining example of how to overcome extreme difficulty, I believe Ruth’s encouragement in our hard times is one decision: “Flourish!” 

Flourish!
