New Testament Books

In a world where we hear much about what others think Jesus said or taught, it’s important to know for yourself what Jesus actually said. Meditate on the person, words, and works of Jesus Christ through this plan developed by the ministry team of Dr. Ken Boa, based on content from the book, Jesus in His Own Words. 

Jesus in His Own Words

The Miracles of Jesus devotional series invites us to encounter the living Christ through His powerful works and personal compassion. From the empty tomb to storms on the sea and the feeding of the multitudes, we see that Jesus meets us in doubt, need, and uncertainty. These devotionals remind us that faith grows as we draw near to Jesus, bring Him what we have, and walk in obedience. Miracles flow not from striving, but from relationship, trust, and a heart aligned with God’s purposes.

The Miracles of Jesus

The disciples didn’t expect a God they would call by name, a God who would sleep beside them in the night to keep warm, a God susceptible to lice and heat rash. In this 5-day plan, the Gospel Writer Matthew shares the surprises and meaning of seeing the Messiah up close.

Brought to you by Unveil Studios' Andrew Kooman, unveil fresh revelation and wonder this Christmas by experiencing Advent through Matthew's eyes.

A Very Matthew Christmas

In Matthew 18:3 NIV, Jesus says, "Unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." What did He mean? This one-week plan covers seven aspects of childlike faith we should aspire to. 

Don’t Be a Child! Be Like a Child - 7 Days of Exploring Childlike Faith

Whether you're in a season of waiting, seeking growth, or needing direction, these simple but powerful stories invite us to hear Jesus more clearly—and to follow Him more closely.

Prayers prompted by the day's passage will help you connect with God and others. Journey with us this month!

God’s Surprising Word: Rejoicing in Hope

The Lord’s Prayer is the most well-known prayer in human history—but that familiarity can work against us. We assume we already know what it means, and in doing so, we miss the depth and power Jesus intended. In this six-day plan, you’ll rediscover the prayer through six lenses of context—history, geography, culture, language, literary design, and visual backgrounds—that open up its original meaning. As you explore these dimensions, you’ll see how this ancient prayer is not just words to recite but an invitation to step into Jesus’ mission of bringing heaven to earth.

Understanding the Original Context of the Lord’s Prayer

The 2-Year Chronological Bible Plan guides you through Scripture in the order of timeline history, helping you see the full story of God’s work from beginning to end. This plan deepens understanding, strengthens faith, and builds a consistent habit of reading God’s Word. Experience how the Bible fits together and grow spiritually as you follow God’s promises throughout Scripture.

Two-Year Chronological Bible Reading Plan (Second-August)

This 3-day devotional explores the Beatitudes as an invitation into God’s upside-down kingdom, where blessing flows through humility, surrender, righteousness, mercy, and purity. It emphasizes that God’s commands are purposeful and transformative, not arbitrary. Followers of Jesus are called to pursue reconciliation, endure opposition with faithfulness, and find identity in Christ even amid suffering. Ultimately, the Beatitudes reframe hardship by pointing believers toward eternal reward and deeper communion with God.

The Beatitudes

What did Jesus mean when he said, "Seek first the Kingdom of God"? Explore these famous words of Jesus found in Matthew 6:33, and consider his way of valuing love and life more than status and wealth. Jesus never minimizes physical needs, but he helps us rethink the things we often love most.

BibleProject | How to Seek First the Kingdom

In this 8-day journey through the Beatitudes, you’ll discover how humility, mercy, and peacemaking (and more) reshape your priorities around God’s kingdom. Forget the pressure of keeping perfect resolutions — this study helps you start the year grounded in grace. Each day leads you to a different beatitude, with space to reflect and pray, helping to deepen your intimacy with Jesus.

8 Resolutions Jesus Would Be Happy With

In Matthew 2:1-23, the story of the Magi gives us a gospel view of how God reveals Himself to us, the reason God reveals Himself to us, and the results of God revealing Himself to us. 

The Epiphany of Christ

“The Sermon on the Mount” is the title often given to chapters 5-7 of the Gospel of Matthew. It is a summary of the teaching of Jesus. Although the other Gospels present some similar passages in other contexts, it is likely that Jesus actually delivered this speech on only one occasion, but then repeated the same concepts several times on other occasions as well. Matthew Henry, the great Bible commentator, says that the purpose of the Sermon on the Mount is “not to fill our heads with notions, but to guide and regulate our practice”.

The Sermon on the Mount

This Presence plan is a collection of days designed to create space: a restful, mindful experience leading us in reflection & prayer. Music, film, and poetry inspired by the Lord’s Prayer weave a journey that allows us time out, a sense of peace, and an opportunity to experience God’s presence.

New Beginnings is the 20th installment of our Reading with the People of God plan, inviting us to start a new year rooted in Scripture. Following our familiar lectionary pattern, each day includes an Old Testament reading, a New Testament reading, and a Psalm as a closing prayer. This season, we’ll journey through Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther—stories of returning, rebuilding, and God’s faithful preservation—while the Gospel of Matthew invites us to meet Jesus, the true King who fulfills every promise. Start the year with renewal, restoration, and a fresh encounter with God’s Word.

New Beginnings - Reading With the People of God #20

Jesus begins his earthly ministry when he is about thirty years old (Luke 3:23). We call this phase “Ministry Foundations.” It lasts about a year and a half. During this time, Jesus will issue two calls. To unbelievers, he says, “Come and see.” To believers, he says, “Follow me” (John 1:39-40).

The Life of Jesus Pt. 2 – Ministry Foundations

As we enter the season of Lent, the 40 days of spiritual preparation leading up to Easter, let's sit with Jesus on the mountainside and listen with open hearts to His teaching found in Matthew chapters 5-7.

Jesus calls us to make disciples, yet starting spiritual conversations can feel intimidating. This devotional explores how prayer becomes the foundation for sharing our faith with confidence and compassion. By beginning with prayer, we learn to meet people where they are and trust God to work in their hearts. Prayer helps others feel seen, heard, and loved, releases burdens we cannot carry alone, and aligns our hearts with God’s will. Discover how prayer can open doors, strengthen obedience, and draw others closer to Jesus.

Power of Disciple Making Through Prayer

The Sermon on the Mount isn’t just a list of teachings–it’s a call to a different kind of life. The way of Jesus can feel backward at first, but it’s actually the path that leads to freedom and true transformation. In this plan, we’ll explore five “opposites” that reveal the values of God’s Kingdom and invite us to follow him more fully.

Choosing the Opposite: The Way of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount

The Beatitudes are more than beautiful sayings—they are profound truths that reveal the heart of God's kingdom. Each blessing offers a glimpse into Christ's vision for His followers, but their full significance lies beneath the surface. This eight-day devotional explores the deep theological roots of the Beatitudes, uncovering how they connect to God's nature, our redemption, and the transformative work of the Holy Spirit.
