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.

The Last Words of Jesus: A Lenten Devotional

Lent is a season of emptying, giving up, cleaning out, and even dying. It's a season where we express sorrow over our sins and gratitude that Jesus was willing to die so we can be forgiven. Over the next 14 days, we will explore the season of Lent as we draw closer to God.

Love God Greatly - Lent: A Season of Drawing Closer to God

This plan will help you draw closer to God and deepen your understanding of His sacrificial love through daily scripture reading, prayer and journaling during this Lent season.

Sacred and Still: A Lenten Devotional

You do not have to be Catholic, formal, or highly spiritual to benefit from Lent. "Lent for Everyone" is a practical, Scripture-filled journey toward the empty tomb. This plan will help you prepare your heart, not only for Easter morning, but to make the resurrection life your every-day-all-year-long practice. We will look at the whole life of Jesus, not only the last few weeks of His earthly life. Whether this is your first Lent or your 50th, this plan invites you to engage Lent as a meaningful journey, not a religious obligation.

Lent for Everyone (Especially if You Haven't Celebrated Lent Before)

Would you like to set aside five to ten minutes each day for quiet, solitary prayer during Lent? Ask the Lord to prepare your heart as you walk the path Jesus took to the cross as you read, meditate, and pray through Isaiah 53, the Song of the Suffering Servant. This plan offers a prayer for each of the six weeks leading up to Holy Week as you read and meditate upon Isaiah 53.

A Prayer for Lent

Easter is not only about the resurrection morning. It is about how we live, suffer, grieve, and hope in a world where death still exists.

This seven-day plan walks through the final days of Jesus’ life and the eternal hope His resurrection secures. From surrender and suffering to loneliness, redemption, resurrection, and final restoration, it invites you to face death honestly while anchoring your heart in God’s promises.

If you are carrying grief, unanswered questions, or the ache of waiting for heaven to come fully, this journey is for you.

Because Easter does not deny death.
It defeats it.
