What if you could go from overwhelmingly insecure to completely confident because of what Christ has done for you?

The world is becoming increasingly hostile to the gospel, and many believers struggle to keep their faith strong. That’s why we need to go deeper into God’s Word and learn to see our lives through His plans. In this 21-day journey of Lectio Divina, you will discover from Scripture what God’s plans are, how they work, and why seeking them brings security, joy, and purpose in every circumstance.

If someone asked you about the gospel, you’d probably talk about Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection; and you should! But the fullness of the gospel is better, truer, and more beautiful than any story ever told. That’s why we’re exploring the gospel as it’s revealed in every New Testament book so we can understand more of what Jesus and His good news means for us and others.

Do you want to be blessed? Get saved? Put bad habits to death? Honor God with your life? Be a better husband/wife/child/parent/employee/boss/Christian/ human? Jesus can help with all of that! Ephesians is a short, power-packed letter that reminds us how everything changes once we are “in Christ.” Slow down, think deeply about each verse, and let Jesus change everything about everything.

Join us as we explore God's vision for a new humanity in the letter to the Ephesians. We'll see what God has done in Jesus to deal with the divisions that keep us apart and create one new humanity. This plan will help you see your new identity in Christ and live into God's purpose for your life.

Here's the deal. You were not placed on this planet for nothing. And you also weren't placed here for just anything. God created you with a specific plan in mind: to worship and reflect him in all you do. That is your purpose. And while it might seem daunting to live a godly life in today's culture, rest assured -- you are right where he wants you. You were made for this. This reading plan will guide you to read through two books of the Bible (Colossians and Ephesians).

Have you ever seen an action movie where the stunts became more and more outrageous? Each stunt gets more extreme as the movie continues to push the limits of what to expect.

Attributes of God on F.I.R.E. is a topical study on the nature of God. We will examine fourteen of God’s communicable attributes or perfections that belong to Him that He also shares with us. This study will help us better understand the amazing nature of the Lord, and to pattern ourselves after Him. F.I.R.E. stands for familiarity, interpretation, relationship, and employment. We will use this methodology as we travel through the Scriptures together. Adapted from the book Attributes of God on F.I.R.E., by Dr. Ken J. Burge, Sr.
