Discovering the context of the story of Jesus helps the story come alive!

Acts is the story of the church fulfilling the great commission. Starting with Jerusalem as the epicenter, the message of Jesus spreads like a seed out into Judea, Samaria, and finally with Paul on his first missionary journey “home.” Peyton Jones guides us through the book of Acts to trace how God works through everyday ordinary people like you and me in Acts chapters 1-14.

We believe that fasting opens doors that no man can! We’ve put together a reading guide that will take you through the entire book of Acts during these next 21 days as you fast, read and pray. Without prayer, a fast is just a diet! As you read, pray for God to speak to you in a new way. Our prayer is "Speak Lord, your servant is listening!"

Without debate or contest, the resurrection of Jesus Christ is by far the most important event in all of human history. Jesus Christ defeated death, forgives sin, and proves He’s God. In this plan, we explore 21 reasons why you should believe in Jesus' resurrection.

In the beginning…was God. With powerful hands and a loving heart everything that exists came from His goodness and grace. And even though our mistakes brought pain and brokenness into the perfection of creation, our God is a God of new beginnings. What we lost in Adam, Jesus came to restore. Not only is He the Author of Life, He is the God of second chances and fresh starts. As we start our year of getting rooted in Jesus, join us as we read through some of the chapters in the Bible that talk about new beginnings. As you read each chapter, look for the goodness of the God of new beginnings and let Him bring a fresh start, a second chance, a new beginning into your life!

Deeper Into Scripture is a methodology of scripture reading that instructs, encourages and equips people to read God's Word daily and deeply. We have created a unique four-fold method of bible reading that directs the individual to read a short passage of scripture four times. Each reading is done with a different question, instruction or objective to be considered. This repetitive reading takes us deeply into the Word of God, increases our understanding and draws us closer to Him.

This reading guide was written by NewSpring staff and volunteers to guide you through the book of Acts in 28 days. Read one chapter each day and spend time with God using the devotionals and questions provided.

Nothing is impossible with God. That’s not just a nice statement, it’s one of the core truths we see all throughout the Bible. Our God is not limited by the physical barriers that often limit us. He isn’t trapped by our obstacle, afraid of our sickness, confused by our problem, or overwhelmed by our need. Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil and bring the superior realities of heaven to earth. He showed us that the heart of the Father is to heal the sick, give sight to the blind, cast out demons, meet the needs of His people, and bring the breakthroughs we need. Signs and wonders have a profound purpose - they show us the way to Jesus and leave us in awe of Him. Therefore, miracles are a normal part of a kingdom life. So let’s not settle for anything less. As we engage the Scriptures through our reading plan this month, let these miracle stories build your faith. Don’t let your personal experiences determine what you believe; let what you believe determine what you experience. If He moved in power then and there, He will move in power here and now, because Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever!

Jesus makes it really clear for us in John 15, that we must abide in Him, for apart from Him we can do nothing. Simply put, if we are going to grow and thrive in our relationship with the Lord, we must be regularly connected to Him. One of the most foundational, and essential ways to connect with and abide in Christ is by reading his Words. The Bible is God’s Word given to us to know Him and to know how to follow Him. The more we engage with the Bible and with God, the more we will grow and produce the good fruit in our lives He desires for us. Come on. Let’s read His Words of life together!
