2 Коринтяни 12:9

The Bible is a book of redemption, freedom, and hope. Within its pages are characters dynamic and full of grit—broken men and women looking for answers. In a way, they’re a lot like the current and former prisoners who authored the devotionals you’re about to read. We hope you are encouraged and inspired by voices from the church behind bars. May their testimony set us all free.

We hope that this reading plan will inspire you to go on a journey in cultivating the fruit of patience in your life. In the past few years we have found that even though circumstances are not always pleasant, God will use them to mold our character. What He desires is for us to approach these trials with a Godly sense of patience.

Taken from Kyle Idleman's follow-up to "Not A Fan," you're invited to find the end of yourself, because only then can you embrace the inside-out ways of Jesus.

Suffering can be perplexing. God’s people—and even Jesus himself—have often asked the “Why?” question when facing suffering. Scripture pulls back the curtain to reveal some, though not all, of God’s purposes in permitting suffering to enter our lives. Through it all, we are called to persevere faithfully, resting in the assurance of ultimate victory and eternal reward.
