Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to Exodus 18:14

Society tells us possessions, power, and position determine the quality of our lives; however, Scripture paints a different picture entirely. God has created each of us with the innate desire to know others and be known by them—we were created for relationships. Join me on this six-day journey as we learn what biblical friendship looks like and how to build these relationships.

Woven between the stories and mandates of scripture is a central theme: God asks us to care for the poor. But how do we help in a way that doesn't cause more harm than good? In this six-day study, I share lessons I’ve learned over decades of international work [through 410 Bridge] and empower you to start serving the poor in a sustainable, long-lasting way.

Open mindedness to others and with other points of view and ways of doing things is a characteristic that does not come to us naturally.  As Christians, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ calls us to live in vibrant fellowship with other believers, cutting across color, race, culture or nationality.  At the workplace and in the church we are called to be open to receive suggestions and even criticisms to help nurture our Christian growth.

I LOVE MY CHURCH. People talk about what they love. They love their spouse, love their children. Or they love their job, sports team or pet, but how many people say they love their church? My prayer is that as you follow this plan, you may re-discover your love of the church and its purpose. Helping our churches today to be authentic, mirroring the original church. That is Simply Church.

We all want to make a difference, but many of us aren’t sure where to start. And sometimes our best intentions can lead to unintended negative impacts.

The impetus for the exodus was “harsh labor” and slavish jobs (see Exodus 1:14; 3:7-8). Not surprisingly, the Book of Exodus has a lot to teach us about our own work today. In this seven-day plan, we’ll travel with Moses from Egypt, through the Red Sea, and to the foot of Mount Sinai to extract wisdom for our work from the exodus!

Going through the book of Exodus will help those who would love to have a thought about the passage they had read that day. This reading plan is aimed at having a systematic study in spite of the not so interesting chapters.

You've been there. Suddenly a person near you comes into focus that is obviously in need of help.
