New Testament Books

In Matthew 2:1-23, the story of the Magi gives us a gospel view of how God reveals Himself to us, the reason God reveals Himself to us, and the results of God revealing Himself to us. 

The Epiphany of Christ

In a world where we hear much about what others think Jesus said or taught, it’s important to know for yourself what Jesus actually said. Meditate on the person, words, and works of Jesus Christ through this plan developed by the ministry team of Dr. Ken Boa, based on content from the book, Jesus in His Own Words. 

Jesus in His Own Words

Jesus calls us to make disciples, yet starting spiritual conversations can feel intimidating. This devotional explores how prayer becomes the foundation for sharing our faith with confidence and compassion. By beginning with prayer, we learn to meet people where they are and trust God to work in their hearts. Prayer helps others feel seen, heard, and loved, releases burdens we cannot carry alone, and aligns our hearts with God’s will. Discover how prayer can open doors, strengthen obedience, and draw others closer to Jesus.

Power of Disciple Making Through Prayer

Prayerfully, as we conclude this journey together, we will be equipped with wisdom that will help us serve God in every season of life!

God’s Surprising Word: Rejoicing in Hope

The Beatitudes are more than beautiful sayings—they are profound truths that reveal the heart of God's kingdom. Each blessing offers a glimpse into Christ's vision for His followers, but their full significance lies beneath the surface. This eight-day devotional explores the deep theological roots of the Beatitudes, uncovering how they connect to God's nature, our redemption, and the transformative work of the Holy Spirit.

The Beatitudes Revisited

The Sermon on the Mount isn’t just a list of teachings–it’s a call to a different kind of life. The way of Jesus can feel backward at first, but it’s actually the path that leads to freedom and true transformation. In this plan, we’ll explore five “opposites” that reveal the values of God’s Kingdom and invite us to follow him more fully.

Choosing the Opposite: The Way of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount

God often reveals Himself when we least expect it. After fleeing Egypt following an act of murder, Moses marries a woman named Zipporah and begins working for her father, Jethro, tending his sheep. During an ordinary workday, God miraculously appears to Moses through a burning bush and sets him on a path that would ultimately transform human history. In the “Holy Ground” Bible study, we’re going to take a closer look at four questions Moses asks in Exodus 3:1–4:17 and develop a deeper understanding of God’s character, our identity and the purpose He has called us to!

Holy Ground

You were not made to run on empty. Yet so many of us do, pushing through exhaustion, carrying weights we were never meant to bear alone, wondering why we feel so far from God even when we are trying so hard.
Jesus knew what weariness truly was. He looked at people bent low under impossible loads and said, Come to Me. 
This three-day plan explores what true rest really is, where it comes from, and how to live in it every day.

TRUE REST

This Presence plan is a collection of days designed to create space: a restful, mindful experience leading us in reflection & prayer. Music, film, and poetry inspired by the Lord’s Prayer weave a journey that allows us time out, a sense of peace, and an opportunity to experience God’s presence.


Presence 11: The Lord's Prayer

When anxiety attacks, what should be our response? As we continue our trek through the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gives us the answer in the conclusion of chapter 6: “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33 ESV). In “Seek First”, we’re going to walk through Matthew 6:25–7:11 and take a closer look at four things we’re often tempted to pursue before Jesus. Prayerfully, as we study God’s Word together, our worry will be replaced with a desire to seek Him first!

Seek First

This three-day devotional invites believers into a bold, faith-filled journey of spiritual authority grounded in Scripture and daily practice. It begins with confession, revealing how declaring Jesus as Lord brings forgiveness, healing, and realignment with God’s truth. It then explores the authority of binding and loosing, teaching believers how to partner with heaven to shut down what opposes God’s will and release His promises with confidence. The journey concludes with the power of agreement, showing how unity in prayer unlocks God’s presence and power, equipping believers to live aligned, pray boldly, and walk in freedom and authority.

Keys to the Kingdom

Over the next 21 days, we’re going on a journey through the words Jesus taught us to pray in Matthew 6. The Lord’s Prayer is an invitation to be changed from the inside out. As we fast and pray together, each daily devotional will help us draw closer to God, grow in identity, realign with his kingdom, trust him for provision, and walk in wholeness.

Our Father...

The disciples didn’t expect a God they would call by name, a God who would sleep beside them in the night to keep warm, a God susceptible to lice and heat rash. In this 5-day plan, the Gospel Writer Matthew shares the surprises and meaning of seeing the Messiah up close.

It can be tempting to pursue personal, immediate success in this life. But is that really the best way to live? What does it look like to find true, lasting success—what the Bible calls “treasures in heaven”? Find out in this three-day Bible Plan, based on Wonderhunt’s short film, For Generations to Come.

Living a Life That Matters

Jesus said, “Go make disciples.” One question: How? Discipology takes everyday believers on the same journey of transformation that Jesus took the disciples on. Rediscover the Biblical rhythms of discipleship that Jesus modeled. After a seven-step introduction, you’ll get three rhythms of seven steps each for: TIME with Jesus & others; TEACHING that shapes the heart; and TACTICS that turn faith into action. That’s 28 practical steps to equip you to effectively live out the Great Commission. Now you can start a disciple-making movement with a friend, your small group, or your whole church. 


Discipology: The Art and Science of Making Disciples

“The Sermon on the Mount” is the title often given to chapters 5-7 of the Gospel of Matthew. It is a summary of the teaching of Jesus. Although the other Gospels present some similar passages in other contexts, it is likely that Jesus actually delivered this speech on only one occasion, but then repeated the same concepts several times on other occasions as well. Matthew Henry, the great Bible commentator, says that the purpose of the Sermon on the Mount is “not to fill our heads with notions, but to guide and regulate our practice”.

The Sermon on the Mount

Jesus begins his earthly ministry when he is about thirty years old (Luke 3:23). We call this phase “Ministry Foundations.” It lasts about a year and a half. During this time, Jesus will issue two calls. To unbelievers, he says, “Come and see.” To believers, he says, “Follow me” (John 1:39-40).

The Life of Jesus Pt. 2 – Ministry Foundations

This April devotional, “The Principle of Wisdom,” is a month-long spiritual journey designed to ground believers in God’s wisdom as the guiding force for every area of life.
This devotional is a guide to be equipped to live with spiritual intelligence, pray strategically, and align every step with the mind and counsel of God.

April Devotional

Life is full of battles, but God has called you to prevail. This 6-day plan, grounded in Matthew 16:16–19, will guide you through the keys God has given His children to walk in victory.


To “prevail” means to prove more powerful than opposing forces, to triumph, and to overcome. Jesus declared that the gates of hell will not prevail against His church. That promise is for you too.


Our prayer is that as you journey through this plan, the Holy Spirit will reveal truth, strengthen you, and empower you to live The Prevailing Life.


The Prevailing Life

Jesus told stories not just to teach—but to help us see. In this 7-day devotional, we’ll explore His parables and reflect on what they reveal about God, our hearts, and everyday life. Through short readings, Scripture, and honest questions, this plan invites you to pause, listen, and respond. Whether you're in a season of waiting, seeking growth, or needing direction, these simple but powerful stories invite us to hear Jesus more clearly—and to follow Him more closely.

Stories Jesus Told Pt.1 

Have you ever experienced the death of a dream or the loss of something you love? When Mary Magdalene and the other Mary embarked on their journey to the tomb in Matthew 28, they had barely a weekend to process an unimaginable loss. In the “At The Tomb” Bible study, we’re going to take a closer look at the angel's words in Matthew 28:1–10 and discover three obstacles that Jesus’ death overcame for both women, as well as for everyone who places their faith in Him!
