We often struggle to keep a steady rhythm to our lives. We discover that we have become too fast, too free, too loud, or too weak. We fall out of the natural rhythm God intended for us to enjoy. Thankfully, He has given us spiritual practices to get us back in rhythm and to help us keep the beat.

This 7-lesson Bible study focuses on the biblical doctrine of the priesthood of all believers.

Loving others is hard. It goes against our heart's natural tendency to live for ourselves. It challenges us to put the needs of others above our own and model Christ's compassion.

Based on the book "Neighborology: Practicing Compassion as a Way of Life" by David Apple.

Explore your purpose as a follower of Jesus: to love God and love others. Over seven days, we will unpack the themes of personal worship, transformation, compassion, service, and justice. Each session starts with a prayer to help you focus on the day’s theme, a passage or two from scripture, a thought from a theological perspective, and ways to apply and respond to the reading.

There is only one way to God, and it's through Jesus, but in Jesus, there are many ways to connect with God. One way you can connect with God is through Compassion. Compassion is connecting with God’s heart towards His people. Through Compassion, we act as the hands and feet of Jesus on the earth. Through this 7-Day devotional, our goal is that your relationship with God will grow as you feel God's love for you and others through Compassion.

This devotional plan is created for worship leaders preparing to guide their churches through Holy Week, from Palm Sunday to Resurrection Sunday. It invites leaders to slow down, reflect, and prepare their hearts before preparing worship sets. Through Scripture, prayer prompts, and worship-focused reflections, this plan helps discern Holy Week themes, shape meaningful worship moments, and invite the Holy Spirit into every service. Rather than offering a checklist, it encourages worship leaders to lead from a place of humility, attentiveness, and resurrection hope—allowing worship planning itself to become an act of worship.
