Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to 1 Corinthians 2:4

What if there’s a simple way of living, a way of “practicing” our life, that inexorably draws us closer to Jesus’ gravitational pull—close enough that we can no longer escape his orbit? What if we replace the 543 “must-do’s” of the Christian life with only one thing? What if our interest and curiosity is funneled into a “nothing but Jesus” kind of life? (Taken from the book The Jesus-Centered Life by Rick Lawrence, a companion to the Jesus-Centered Bible—jesuscenteredbible.com.)

There is a sacred anxiety when believers feel called to minister, especially when distracted by an awareness of their inadequacies. But God is more concerned with the condition of the heart and willingness to respond than a person’s abilities or inabilities.

“Christians don’t need church. All we need is Jesus.” Have you ever heard that? There is some merit to this statement. After all, church attendance doesn’t save us. Only a real relationship with Jesus does that. However, is attending church necessary for Christians to walk out their faith? These five points dive deeper into this issue, and as odd as it sounds, they don’t all agree at surface level.

Christianity calls us to sacrifice instead of living for oneself. We can't do both. Paul wrote about this in his letter to a divided and self-centered people to remind them to follow Jesus and only Jesus. In this RightNow Media study, Jennie Allen walks into the messy lives of the Corinthians and takes us through Paul’s words to learn how we should distinguish ourselves from the culture even today.

The Holy Spirit uses God’s Word to grow believers in their faith and increase their passion for Jesus.

EVANGELISM…what do you feel when you hear this word? Most Christians we talk to these days feel a mix of emotions from discomfort to dread. You are not alone.

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19a). The Kendrick Brothers’ movie THE FORGE powerfully illustrates the impact of discipleship.

This devotional is a biblically rich guide to getting your spirit back.

Missional living is not self-powered or self-directed. It’s not about seeing a challenge, gearing up, and running toward it all on your own strength.

In this 5-day plan, we’ll look at how the first disciples and apostles learned to live missional lives shaped by the gifts that Jesus gave them through his Spirit.

Discipleship works against fear. As we obey God’s commands, we entrust ourselves to him. Like the students attending the schools founded by D. L. Moody in Northfield, MA, God’s people “are encouraged to test the meaning and value of the Bible’s teachings experimentally, by acting upon them, and living them out.” As we “test experimentally” the word of God, we will find that we will have fewer and fewer reasons to be afraid. You can get an expanded version of this plan at moodycenter.org/fear.

In the midst of our weaknesses, worries, and to-do lists is a steady God who is more than able to stabilize our families. In this 6-day devotional, you'll learn to place your trust in a good God and direct your children to do the same.
