Matthew 9:28

This three-day Bible reading plan takes children to three extraordinary moments in Jesus’ ministry. Read on to see what Jesus does when a servant is ill, how he behaves in a storm and what he says when he meets men who cannot see. There is nothing ordinary about Jesus!

If anything in this life deserves our attention, it’s the powerful words of Jesus. Things in life that are red shock us: Fire trucks, stop signs, even blood. They stop us in our tracks and we pay attention to them. The words of Christ, often written in red ink in some bibles, should demand our attention as well. Experience God’s presence as you reflect on the awe-inspiring teachings of Christ.

In times of uncertainty, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed. The news, social media, and the people around us can make us feel anxious or worried when impacting events happen. In times when it doesn’t seem like we have any control over things, we can find a place of comfort and peace in God’s Word.

There are some names in the Bible that everyone knows: Adam and Eve, Noah, Moses, Mary, Peter, Paul. But the Bible is also full of stories with unnamed characters. People who made a difference not in the spotlight, but in the shadows. We often think they and we are insignificant if the spotlight is not on. But here's the good news: God chooses and uses shadow Christians.
