We all need instructions, even marching orders. God’s provides these instructions through a series of letters that we find in the New Testament. The Basic Training Challenge gives you a starting point to learn about God’s mission for you here on earth. Similar to your basic training, this plan will challenge you to get spiritually fit in God’s Word.

There is no heartache equal to that of losing a loved one. Unanswered questions, despair, and perhaps self-blame can leave those left behind with feelings of hopelessness. This 16-day plan examines biblical examples of suicide as well as the smorgasbord of lies we are tempted to believe in a suicide situation. Replacing these lies with God’s Truth will bring healing and comfort to those left behind. 

Deeper into Scripture is a methodology of scripture reading that instructs, encourages and equips people to read God’s Word daily and deeply. We have created a unique four-fold method of bible reading that directs the individual to read a short passage of scripture four times. Each reading is done with a different question, instruction or objective to be considered. This repetitive reading and instruction takes us deeply into the Word of God and draws us closer to Him.

In between, we explore the enigma of human suffering. What should our response be to the agony of our painful thorns? This plan will help you set your sails to receive the wind of God’s lavish grace.

In John 15, Jesus paints a picture of the Vine (Jesus) and the branches (us), and the privilege and fruit that is produced as the “branches” stay connected to the “Vine”. During these 21 Days of Fasting, we use fasting as a way to focus on abiding in Jesus—our sole purpose is to “remain in him and he in us” so that we “will bear much fruit to the Father’s glory”. And we get to do this together. Let's go!

Like a plant, our root system—our identity—is vitally important to our health. It’s how you see yourself in light of God, others, and the world. It’s what holds you when life changes, threatens, or causes you to question what’s true about you! We’ll look at how a healthy identity rooted in who God is will keep us strong, vibrant, and grounded no matter what comes our way.
