“Why, God?” is the most natural and dangerous question to ask when you are suffering. This reading plan explains.

We live in divided times, but Jesus modeled what it looks like to love across political, gender, religious, and cultural lines. His life was marked by loving people wildly different from Him, and He calls us to do the same. Explore this 7-day plan based on the small group study "Divided We Stand."

Our faith isn’t a one-time moment of acceptance and salvation—it’s a continual walk with God as we seek to be more like Jesus. And we’re not alone on this journey! Hebrews 12 says that not only has Jesus walked the same path before us, but centuries of fellow believers who have faced every kind of challenge, sin, and peer pressure have run this race before us and are cheering us on. There are many things in our world that hinder our race. Our own sin, the sin of others, or even the good things we put in our life ahead of following Jesus. But we are empowered by the Holy Spirit to shatter every chain and sin and take our next steps in faith! What is holding you back? What’s keeping you trapped in fear and frustration? What is that thing in your life that you need to shatter to continue following hard after God?

I was once slave to my flesh and sin, but now I am free. Jesus pulled me out of a life of pain and emptiness and brought me into His loving arms. He wants this for you too! God has given us freedom through His son. We don’t have to be slave to this world so obsessed with sex. We can be transformed even if we’ve failed repeatedly. Walk through this 7 day plan and hear God’s word set to song.

What does it mean to be free? In this Plan, we will explore the meaning of true freedom in Christ. “For the one who was a slave when called to faith in the Lord is the Lord’s freed person; similarly, the one who was free when called is Christ’s slave” (1 Corinthians 7:22, NIV).

Created to meet the spiritual needs of high school and college students, The NIV Telos Bible is designed to be contextually relevant and to challenge young adults to take a meaningful look at the Bible. This 7-day plan offers new believers and those exploring the Bible for the first time readings on fundamental Biblical concepts.

God is worthy of our worship. This devotional plan, based on ORU Worship’s 2022 album, “You Are My One Thing,” will encourage you to grow in faith and be transformed as you reflect on God’s attributes and grace. Every day, the plan relates album lyrics to Scripture to help you revel in worshipping the Lord above all.

The language of faith is not the language of culture. We may use some of the same words, but they rarely mean the same thing. If we are to effectively share our faith, we have to translate Jesus so he can be understood. Change the way you think about sharing God's good news–and the way others hear it! Pastor and teacher Shauna Pilgreen is excited to show you how.
