Is communion just a religious obligation, or is it more significant to the Christian faith than what you might think? How does it honor God? J. Lee Grady sets out to answer your questions on communion in this 3-day devotional that will help you practically and purposefully understand this symbolic act that Jesus first took with His disciples the night before His death on the cross.

Written by a self-proclaimed former “gunslinger” of painful words, learn to speak words not of recklessness but of restoration to God, yourself, and those you love. Taken from Brady Boyd's new book "Speak Life."

The seven feasts outlined in the Old Testament were not just significant for the Israelites, they are significant to us today because they are symbolic of God’s perfect plan. For believers today, these feasts represent freedom because Jesus came to set us free. As you go through this plan, allow Jesus to reveal Himself to you. When you feast on Jesus, you’ll be set free!

More than likely you have seen or experienced conflict among Christians, even to the point of people leaving the church. It's not pleasant to be confronted by Christians who don't act like the Jesus they serve. But what if living in this tension was what God intended? How do we respond with grace and forgiveness when we are hurt by Christians?

The world tells tales that deny God. We believe many of them. The Bible tells a different story, but to understand that story we have to live it. Inspired by D. L Moody Center’s Go Dark, Shine Bright campaign, this 10-day Bible Plan challenges you to set aside stories that keep the Lord at arm’s length by engaging in practices that will ground your life in God’s story.

The first epistle to the Corinthians covers several issues that are relevant to Christians today. By drawing lessons from 1 Corinthians 1-7, Dr. David Mende encourages us to live for Christ in a corrupt world.

The church at Corinth was plagued by internal division and sinful derision. Paul provides the only solution potent enough for their disunity and spiritual disruptions: “Jesus Christ and Him crucified” (1 Corinthians 1:10). 1 Corinthians reminds us that by focusing on Jesus and His glorious resurrection, we too will “be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the word of the Lord” (1 Corinthians 15:58).

In part two of a five-part, verse-by-verse journey through the Book of 1 Corinthians, we'll dive into chapters 4–6 as we discover what real church looks like and how believers are meant to work through issues together.

Happy New Year everyone! As we come into not only a new year, but a new decade, we have decided to collectively embark on 21 days of prayer and feasting! We pray as you read and meditate over these devotions, you come with an attitude of thanksgiving and praise. Come thanking God in prayer that He has already given it to us!

This one-year plan will take you on a journey in Faith and Love through the New Testament. We hope that you will be challenged to grow spiritually and be inspired as a follower of Jesus. This is Part 9 of 12.

Let’s explore how we can influence the culture with the truth of God’s word through 1 and 2 Corinthians! These two letters are a powerful message from the Apostle Paul to a church that was passionate about its mission but needed direction to remain true to its Christian faith and doctrines. Those priorities make his letters important teaching for every Christian.

In these devotional notes, Robin and Zoe Ham point us to Paul’s focus on our identity in Christ and the reality of his return. We’ll see that this letter is more than just a reprimand; it is rich in gospel truth and has plenty to teach us about how to live in the light of Jesus’ resurrection today.
