"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God" (Matthew 5:3, NLT). If peace is something that needs to be made or created, how do we do it? In this Plan, we will take a systematic approach to learn how to bring peace to the world around us.

Esau was not merely Jacob’s brother; he became a nation, a culture, and a warning. Though born with privilege, position, and access to covenant blessing, Esau despised spiritual inheritance for temporary appetite. His life exposes the danger of living by the flesh, choosing wrongly, moving at the pace of the world, and desiring blessing without surrender. This 7-day plan invites believers to examine the Esau mindset, resist compromise, value their spiritual birthright, and walk patiently in God’s covenant purposes.

This reading plan explores the account of Abraham's life in Genesis from a distinctly Christian perspective in order to answer questions such as: What did these stories mean for those who first received them? And what do they mean for us today?
