A Bible plan that will help you discover the freedom you were designed and made for. So many chase freedom and deliverance, but Bible gives us a beautiful understanding of what Jesus has done and given to us, to live free.

We’ll explore the biblical themes of hope, peace, joy, and love, diving deeper into human longings for healing and restoration—our anticipation for God’s new world.

People hurt us. And we harden our hearts to protect ourselves. Plans fail. Tragedy comes unexpectedly.

Let this five-day series with Andrew and Wendy Palau refresh your soul—God is FOR you, and His plans for you are good!

If you feel burdened and weary this week, receive this invitation to slow down and be with Jesus, who doesn’t demand more of you but in¬stead asks you to lay things down.

In John’s gospel, Jesus uses the words “I AM,” providing insight into His character, motives, interactions, and priorities.

There’s no doubt that we gravitate to the promises of God. The side we don’t like is the side of struggle when following Jesus. Walking and living for Jesus will bring both great and difficult times.

There is possibly no more carefully navigated response than to the question “How Ya Feeling?” We long for and loath this question because we must either remain at the surface or expose what lies beneath.

As Jesus considered His last remaining moments with His disciples before His crucifixion, He made sure they knew everything that was most important for the uncertain future they were walking into. In John 15, Jesus reminded His disciples that they were created for connection—with God and one another. For them to thrive after His death, they were going to need to learn to "be the branch."
