Humility

The book of Colossians has a lot to say about how the gospel should shape our chosen vocation. Over the next four days, we will look at a few key passages in this beloved book, unpacking how Paul’s words should impact the work we do each day.

Colossians on Work

A two-week reading plan about how we can honor God and gain freedom when we respect the authority figures in our lives.  
 WEEK 1: Honoring authority now brings more freedom later. 
 WEEK 2: When you honor authority, you honor God.

Says Who?

I’ve discovered something surprising: living for myself is a lot of work. Focusing on how to be the best “me” sounds freeing, but it is actually a crushing weight—because God calls us to know the joy of focusing first on him. I hope this glimpse into my book  Free of Me  resonates with your own desire to let go of yourself and hold on to God. It’s where we find true freedom!

Free Of Me: Why Life Is Better When It’s Not All About You

Only God can judge me—not. Christians are also called to judge others with righteous judgment. But what does that mean? This 5-day plan will help you be fair in your judgment.

Righteous Judgment

Exodus 32–34 chronicles how both Moses and God responded to Israel's creating and worshiping of a golden calf at Sinai. The people’s failure, Moses’s intercession, and God’s revelation reveal key insights into what it looks like to draw near to God, discern His heart, and reflect His image. This seven-day devotional will examine Moses’s interactions with God with a focus on learning how to flee idolatry and model ourselves after Christ.

This plan is intended as a guide to discovering the message of Philippians for yourself!

Humans can easily fall victim to the "looking-out-for-number-one" syndrome. Our current culture often supports that individuals put themselves and their happiness first. This plan strives to put our "Me Monster" within on a diet. When we take the focus off ourselves and concentrate on the One who deserves the glory, we become more God-centered and less me-centered. That's a good thing! 

Christ Must Increase. I Must Decrease.

Scripture elevates God to His rightful place as the sovereign Lord of all creation, reminding us we are not sovereign but finite. We’re not the point. We’re here to point to the Point. Taken from the teaching of Casting Crown's lead singer, Mark Hall, these devotionals are designed to recalibrate our perspectives in a selfish world. 

Only Jesus From Casting Crowns
