Infinitum is a way of life centered on following Jesus by loving God and loving others through an emphasis on the habits and disciplines of surrender, generosity, and mission. We aim to see the Bible and also the world through these Jesus-colored lenses. This short reading plan is based on the Infinitum component, Mission.

Isolation ≠ seclusion. In isolation, fear is loud; in seclusion, God is heard. Where are you standing in this season of uncertainty: behind the closed doors of fear or in the waiting room of God's sovereignty? As with the disciples, God can change our lives in one visit, but He needs a private moment with us first. Make room for seclusion and God will intercede!

The book of Acts is the exciting story of the advance of God's Kingdom in the early days of the church. Today, the book of Acts is still happening in many places around the world. This reading plan links stories from Acts in the Bible with real stories today.

In the days leading up to Easter Sunday, let's take some time to stop, dive deep into Jesus' journey to the cross, and invite Him to bring you fresh revelation of this season. It is helpful to have a journal with you as you reflect on the questions, and to track what God reveals to you in this time!

The good news, or gospel, is absolutely central to faith in Jesus. For some of us, the details around the gospel can seem foggy; to some it's a way to avoid hell, or maybe to others it's a piece of advice for your life. In this study, we will dive into what it means to be equipped with the good news of Jesus.

Have you ever wanted to help someone in need, but you didn’t feel like you had anything to offer them? You are not alone! But here’s the good news: No matter how much we have, we ALL have something to give. Join in as we explore how we can spread God’s love through generosity!

In thirty years, the good news of Jesus Christ which had begun in Jerusalem had reached the pinnacle of power in the then known world. A quick overview of the book will show that rapid growth occurred largely due to the working of God’s Holy Spirit, the availability of sincere people, and the simple pattern that was employed.

It is impossible to overstate the impact the first Easter has on the work we do each day. In this four-day plan, we’ll explore four things Easter gives us that are essential to our vocations: An identity, a King, a mission, and the ultimate incentive to work with excellence on behalf of our risen Savior.

The vocations represented in the characters of the Easter narrative can teach us a lot about God and how our work is a means of co-laboring with the Risen King. In this four-day plan, we’ll look at the vocations of the disciples at Gethsemane, Joseph of Arimathea, Peter, and Jesus’s first followers to draw out applications for our own work today.

After Jesus rose from the dead, He ascended into heaven. He is seated at the right hand of God until He will return to the earth to judge the living and the dead. Then there will be a new heaven and a new earth. But in the meantime, how does it help you that Jesus is in heaven? This reading plan gives you four answers to this question.

Have you ever felt hopeless? Out of options? Losing focus? Hope Restored by Chidi Wosu is an uplifting devotional that offers solace and encouragement to those grappling with moments like these.

Is there such a thing as the baptism in the Holy Spirit? Of course! How it differs from the receiving of the spirit and where you can find it in the Bible, you can read in this plan. You will also learn why we receive the Spirit and what the effects are.

The Holy Spirit who worked in and through the members of the early Church is the same Holy Spirit who works in and through members of the Church today. Their story is our history, one we can draw on and learn from as we execute the mission we’ve been given as followers of Jesus Christ. 

God speaks through all kinds of channels. He’s probably speaking to you right now, but you don’t even recognize it’s Him! Every one of us buys into some sort of myth about God’s voice and how to hear it. That’s why each of these devotionals deals with one myth about hearing God. They will help us change how we listen…and then really begin to hear God.

There are some names in the Bible that everyone knows: Adam and Eve, Noah, Moses, Mary, Peter, Paul. But the Bible is also full of stories with unnamed characters. People who made a difference not in the spotlight, but in the shadows. We often think they and we are insignificant if the spotlight is not on. But here's the good news: God chooses and uses shadow Christians.

Spirit is the second in a series of studies that helps you establish a strong biblical foundation as a follower of Jesus. In this plan we focus on the most shadowy member of the “Trinity” – the Holy Spirit. He is now living in you. This plan will help you understand what the Holy Spirit is doing in you, with you, and for you.

The event is the judgement of the works of the believer at The Judgement Seat of Christ or The Bema.

Looking in each of these directions will help us to overcome our everyday challenges, and help us to encourage others to do the same.
