Tasuta lugemisplaanid ja palveraamatud seoses Isaiah 11:2

Christmas has its own unique sound and so much of that sound is defined from the music we listen to during the holiday season. From traditional carols to modern-day songs, music is a catalyst that helps us draw closer to God during Christmas. During this three-day video reading plan, you will watch, listen and read the words of three classic Christmas carols that will help you focus on the true meaning of Christmas.

Do you feel the Bible is an isolated grab bag of stories and teachings? Did you know that these stories and teachings fit into a bigger story in the Bible? In this 3-day Bible Plan, we will explore how through the Bible, God communicates the unified story of his plan to redeem and reconcile all people to himself through the life and death of Jesus. And how the Bible is the big story of God making his home among us. This 3-day Bible Plan is part 2 of 4 designed to go along with the Catechism 'The Big Story' small group series.

When we have been knocked down by tragedy, it can be difficult to hear the voice of God amidst all of the noise of the mind. In this devotional, you will see that even when God seems silent, His word is still bringing strength, and you will learn how to survive your storm by His promises.

“This [was] good,” but it will get better when Jesus returns and fixes everything we’ve broken. This study plan surveys our loss of dominion and the strategy of our King to keep His promise to restore all things.

This Bible reading plan is something of a paradox. Over the next five days, we’re going to look both at the Bible and outside the Bible. We’re going to learn to read God’s word in context of His world. So come, join us. Listen to the birds and the skies and the seasons. Listen to the Scripture and Spirit. Listen as they sing of God’s glory together.

What does it mean for both heaven and nature to sing? How does the Advent season reflect the reality that Jesus came not only to save the world but to save the entire cosmos? This plan walks us through five days of reflecting on these truths during Advent.

The book of Isaiah contains rich imagery, prophecies about the coming Messiah, and reminders of God’s faithfulness towards his people. The prophet Isaiah recounts God’s faithfulness to the Israelites and speaks of his hope in a future redemption through Jesus. On this plan, you will learn more about God’s justice and compassion and how he is present and near to those who are suffering.

Are you an entrepreneur or freelancer in need of prayers and devotions specifically for your work? This five-day plan focuses on how to be in business with God as your CEO.

Observe the season of Advent by contemplating Lessons and Carols. Grow in faith by slowing down, reading scripture, and learning songs that deepen your understanding of the incarnation. Scripture and songs are carefully arranged in a sequence that prepares us for the birth of the Christ child.

From the triumphal entry and welcome of “Hosanna,” to the final claim of “He’s alive,” we see many dramatic shifts in the relationship between the crowd and King Jesus during His last week in Jerusalem. Join Journey Worship Co. and Nick Judd, one of their pastors at The Journey Church, as they dive into these interactions and magnify the worthiness of Christ!

By mid-December, many already hate Christmas. We are tired of the carols and the parties, and our tree is starting to die. There are a lot of reasons that people hate Christmas. But, what if all of the hatred is because what we hoped for isn’t reality? This year, set aside the hate and come expecting something new as we dive into Advent themes of the season.

Christians are different. They can’t help it. When you’re in Christ and filled with the Spirit, it changes you. This leads to “weird ideas” and alternate beliefs about reality. This series of 5-day plans uses classic Christian Creeds as a vehicle to explain the Christian worldview compared to the world’s and help us see reality through Jesus’ eyes.

Christians are different. They can’t help it. When you’re in Christ and filled with the Spirit, it changes you. This leads to strange expectations. It’s a different kind of hope flowing from Christ’s perspective on things. This is the third in a series of 5-day plans that uses the Lord’s Prayer to show how Jesus invites us to approach life and the future.

Are you thirsty for a deeper experience of God? God wants that for you as well—and he has provided a way for us to know him through the Holy Spirit. Jesus told his disciples that God’s indwelling presence through the Spirit was (and is) even better than his bodily presence. This devotional is for all of us who ache to experience God in our heart as well as our mind.

The book we often avoid reading is the very book God promises to bless us for reading. A world of angels and demons, eagles and beasts. Images that seem strange at first glance. What if they are more than unusual creatures? What if they are symbols of familiar concepts and systems waiting to be "revealed"? Step in. Look closer. Revelation may be unveiling far more than you think.

Worship is more than singing and praying. There’s something more going on than meets the eye that goes beyond what most people realize. When we worship, we engage in spiritual battle. This plan is the first of four plans designed to help you understand the intersection of spiritual warfare and worship.

Embrace the Holy Spirit as your closest friend and trusted guide. Experience lasting peace, freedom, and joy as you welcome the ultimate Comforter into your everyday life.

Join us on this journey to deepen your relationship with Jesus. This is part one of eight in the "Jesus, I Need You" series by Thistlebend Ministries. See also Jesus, I Need You (companion prayer).

Does your family have a nativity set? Nativities can be more than toys or decorations—they can teach our children about the people God invited to join heaven in celebrating Jesus' birth. Join us for this six-day Advent plan for families featuring devotions from the CSB One Big Story Bible. Each day will focus on a key person at the nativity and a key truth we learn about God from them.
