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.

You're Not the Boss of Me

This plan is 47 days in length, but the seven Sundays are days of rest according to tradition.

40 Days of Lent

Do you wish to experience God more in your life?  Thomas Merton, an American Catholic writer, theologian, mystic, and Trappist monk, once wrote that “the grateful person knows that God is good, not by hearsay but by experience. And that is what makes all the difference.”  We pray this plan will help you learn to experience the beautiful depths of God's love through Christ.

Experiencing Christ's Love

The fruit of the Spirit empowers us to rise above hardship, witness with more boldness, and personalize His hope to a desperate world. 

OVERCOMERS  With the Fruit of the Spirit

God's Amazing Love for You

More than a book, the Bible is a library of life instruction written for those willing to know God. Old Testament believers called the Scriptures the TaNaKh: divided into the Torah, where God's ideal is established, Nebi'im (prophets), where God's ideal is unrealized, and Ketubim (writings), where God's ideal will be restored. The original order ends with a cliffhanger: who will go up (and establish God's Temple)?

So many people have a hard time knowing what truth is and end up abandoning their faith. Let this 6-day plan help you discover what truth is. 

What Is Truth?

The Heart Attitudes: Part 5

Talking about faith should be so simple. But there is a kind of cultural Christian lingo that doesn’t translate. We can no longer assume our friends understand words such as grace or gospel. Others, like lost and sin, have become so negative they are nearly conversation-enders. If you’ve ever felt this tension, maybe you need to join author Jonathan Merritt for a little spiritual speech therapy. In this 5-day devotional, we’ll learn how to speak God from scratch. Together, let’s discover a faith worth talking about. 

Learning to Speak God from Scratch

Solomon Says: A 5-Day Plan for Tweens

New Year’s Resolutions are a common thing. “New Year, New You” has become THE saying entering the New Year. But, how often does that really happen? How much do we really change when the clock strikes midnight? This study is going to go beyond changing ourselves, as we look into how Jesus is transforming us.

This Time Next Year

All too often we try to navigate this world in our own strength and sometimes it's good to remember that God has left us some help along the way in the form of His Word. This plan is a reminder that when we don't have the answers, God does and we need to learn to trust in Him and His Word to keep us on the right path. 

Real Hope: Walking in Wisdom

Through these daily readings, discover who the real King David of the Bible was. Both noble and wretched, neither a saint nor a monster, at times victorious and other times a failure, David was through it all a man after God's own heart.

David The Great

Wisdom

While often overlooked, the Book of Jude remains as relevant today as the time it was written.

Breaking Free

The word PURPOSE has become so common that it is no longer understood. In this study of Nehemiah Chapter 2 we will discuss the idea of purpose in a unique and uncommon way that will bring clarity and understanding to living a life of purpose. 

Moving Beyond Fear Into Favor: Walking in Your Purpose

The choice of a devotional book is more personal than most. This kind of reading is not merely for the purpose of leisure and enjoyment. No, with this kind of resource you’re expecting  and praying for  something more. You want to hear from God, receive His direction, and be refreshed in the depths of your soul. Only God’s Word can do that. So you need to choose wisely. With her first devotional book, Priscilla Shirer makes your choice easy. For even though she’s written multiple best-selling books and Bible studies . . . It all starts for Priscilla where it all starts for you. Alone with God. Alone with His Word. Eager to hear His voice. Prepared to humbly and obediently respond. She hopes, more than anything else, that the daily insights you receive in this Plan will challenge, encourage, and strengthen you in every way.

Life is full of change. Whether it be good like making the team, bad like parent’s divorce, or complicated like switching schools. Change can make us ask “Am I strong enough to face this?” or “Why do I have to go through this?” These devotionals will challenge you to rethink how you view change, and we’ll explore how God’s commitment to us doesn’t change, even if everything else does.

Even If

Everyone wonders why but many times we never get our answer. This 10-Day devo takes a look at several of those questions. Join us as we explore "the reason."

For This Reason

Student Leadership 101: Vision 

What's your  #hashtag ? So often in our teenage years, we find ourselves being labeled, or labeling others (i.e. #ugly, #outsider, #idiot, etc.). This 7-day plan designed for youth is all about labels, whether we give them to ourselves or others, and  how God labels us .

#Hashtag: Do Our Labels Define Us?

What’s the difference between being nice and being kind? It’s easy to fake nice. You can look one way on the outside but feel another way on the inside. However, it’s hard to fake kindness.

Christlikeness is the goal of our faith, so we strive to be kind.

Be Kind: Devotions for Developing the Heart God Desires

Are you facing a difficult decision, or season of life, wondering where God is in all of it? In this five-day reading plan, we’ll tackle some of the harder questions we find ourselves asking during these times. As we focus on the Savior, we find the courage to overcome our circumstances.
