We all have emotions that compete for control of our lives. And those emotions can get us in trouble when we let them be the boss of us. In this 7-day reading plan, Andy Stanley shares a scriptural “how-to” about saying no to destructive emotions. We need to monitor our hearts—not just our behavior—to prevent emotions like guilt, envy, fear, and anger from bossing us around.

Forsake Not the Assembling of Yourselves Together

We start off Part Four of our Hebrews series with the third warning: Be careful not to fall away from Jesus. When we lose sight of Jesus and our relationship with Him, we can no longer access the greater life He gives and all that it brings. Jesus is  the  better Priest that gives us  the  better covenant. Without Him, we cannot live, walk and have access to God’s promises.

Hope Still Lives Here

I would like to share a thought with you that is fundamental to our lives. It’s from Psalm 1:  “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful.”  This verse teaches us about the Christian life, about what it shouldn’t be. But what should it be?

Psalm 1 - A Foundation To Your Christian Life

Do you long to “make disciples who make disciples,” to follow Jesus’ mandate in the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20)? If so, you may have found that it can be difficult to find role models for this process. Whose example can you follow? What does disciplemaking look like in everyday life? Let’s look into the Old Testament to see how five men and women invested in others, Life-to-Life®.

Faith is a gift God give us. Nurture it and it will bring richness and fulfillment to your life.

Discover Hope Through Faith

A blind beggar crying out desperately by the side of the road, an immoral woman despised as dirty by polite society, a corrupt government employee hated by all – how could any of these people from society’s fringes hope to connect with a holy God? Based on insights from the book of Luke in the Africa Study Bible, follow Jesus as he bridges the gap between God and the marginalized.

Following Jesus Our Mediator

We're spending our time, money and energy everyday. So, how do we prioritize our needs vs. our "wants"? Let’s reflect on what we really have to offer this world. Like the boy in John 6 who had fish and loaves, we all have something ordinary in our hands… And if we just stay close to Jesus - like that boy did - he takes our "ordinary" and turns it into a miracle.
