Over the next 15 days, read through John’s letter to the church in 1 John alongside explanatory passages adapted from ESV Expository Commentary: Hebrews–Revelation (Volume 12).

Every great adventure has a starting point, a beginning place that launches the exhilarating expedition. Such is the extraordinary journey of the Christian faith. Let’s build a firm foundation of eight basic Bible truths, taking two days at a time for exploring: the power of God’s Word, His love, why the cross, grace, Holy Spirit resurrection power, intimacy with God, transforming repentance, and the gift of spiritual warfare.

1 John is the first of three short letters written by the disciple John. 1 John is thought to have been written to the churches around Ephesus in around 90AD. In this short letter, we start to see and grasp the magnitude of God’s perfect character, and how much his love has radically been shown to us through Jesus. OUR GOD IS ____ ?

The Apostle John had one clear message in his letters: Love one another. In the letters of 1, 2, and 3 John, the beloved disciple encouraged followers of Christ to love God by following His commands, and to love and honor fellow believers. John’s message is incredibly relevant to us today, offering insight to us as we seek to live like Jesus lived and love like Jesus loved.

If you want to grow as a disciple of Jesus, then this Plan is for you. Join us for a verse-by-verse study through 1 John, one of the greatest examinations of love that has ever been written. With John as our guide our eyes will be opened to the truth of what it means to be loved by God and how we can share that love with others.

What if you could go from overwhelmingly insecure to completely confident because of what Christ has done for you? This plan invites readers to shed their self-doubt, silence their inner critic, and lift their eyes to heaven. Readers who often feel like they are failing or “not enough” will discover that they can trust the God who created us and has a purpose for our lives.

This devotion will take you through the entire book of 1 John. In 1 John, we see what humanity's reasonable response is to God's radical love.
