If you’re tired of being attacked by the enemy, then you need to know how to block his deceptions. But how? In this 5-day devotional with John Ramirez, you’ll learn the key principles and practical tips on how to stay rooted in the goodness of God no matter what comes your way.

The message of the gospel contains such power in it that becomes an unstoppable force. Join the apostle Paul in his last days as he “fights the good fight, ” “keeps the faith,” and “finishes the race.” The struggles and opposition he faced are no different from the ones we encounter today. Learn from him and be inspired to bring transformation fighting the good fight.

The Book of Acts, also called "The Acts of the Apostles," is the companion volume to the Gospel of Luke. This reading plan explores the major concepts that Luke addressed as he unfolded the unhindered spread of the gospel of God's kingdom in the days of the early church.

This seven-day plan shares the importance of individual and shared memory in our practice of gratitude. Through powerful acts of remembrance such as communion, prayer, and Scripture reading, we remember the goodness of God and His faithfulness that was, is and is to come.

Want to gain confidence in what God is doing in our world? Over seven days, this plan shows how we can be totally confident in Jesus’ unstoppable kingdom from the Book of Acts. Betrayal, persecution, racial tensions, plots to kill and a storm to end all storms—nothing stops God’s plans.

Some Christians delight in the subject of spiritual gifts, while others get nervous. Nobody wants to be weird, but nobody wants to miss out on what God has in mind for his church either. The apostle Paul wrote, “Now about the gifts of the Spirit, brothers and sisters, I do not want you to be uninformed” (1 Cor. 12:1). This nine-day reading plan is a “tour” of the nine gifts he listed later in that chapter. Each day gives a brief definition, an example from the early (first-century) church, and then a second example from here and now in our time. 

We all know that we should read our Bible, pray, and be the church, but what if we actually started doing that? Zúme Accountability Groups are small groups of 2 to 4 people that don’t just want to be hearers of the word, but doers!

(Part four of a four part journey through the Books of Acts.) Even in (and especially in?) hard times, God is present and is working to build His Church. We can find encouragement in this. When circumstances force us to pivot, we don’t have to lose heart - God is with us.

The book of Acts shows us how God used the disciples in the days after Jesus’ ascension to impact the world with the power of the Gospel message. We hope as you read, you’ll realize we are also called to be witnesses to the gospel of Jesus Christ and empowered with the Holy Spirit to go into this world.

The book of Acts reveals the power of God at work through the Apostles and other individuals who would turn the world upside down with the Christian movement. This study will help you understand the importance of the Holy Spirit at work in your life and recognize that God’s children can do the extraordinary work of Jesus Christ when yielded to his will and power.

In this 20-day plan, through chapters 19-28, you will see it’s not merely just an account of what happened but rather what is still happening to this day around the world through the power of The Holy Spirit. In Acts, you will see the power of the Holy Spirit on display in the lives of the men and women who followed Jesus.

Are you—or is someone you love—suffering from the trauma of plans that have been washed away, relationships that have been uprooted, or security that has been devastated? Rather than being destroyed by this tempest, what if you allowed the disturbance to increase your capacity for rapid growth and fulfilling your destiny in God? After digging deeply into the Word of God, there is a triumphant way to be StormProof!

You've been there. Suddenly a person near you comes into focus that is obviously in need of help. Quickly your mind begins to rattle off your options - shift your gaze; turn around; walk away; ignore them. But what if they are too close to ignore? What then? That is what this little devotional is all about. What to do when someone in need is too close to ignore.

This plan deals with Thanks-giving. I was tempted to call the series "An Attitude of Gratitude" but there is something about the idea of Giving Thanks that appeals to me. Gratitude and Thankfulness are not limited to emotions that we experience from time to time, but are choices we make and gifts that we give.

This plan will guide you in reading the Book of Acts (of the Apostles) and give you opportunity to hear what God is speaking to you personally. We are looking forward to reading and hearing this together with our church. 

You’ve heard of the domino effect, right? The term is used to describe when one event sets off a chain reaction of other events.. Is your life, your choices and your commitments creating a domino line? Our mission and call as believers in Jesus is to continue to build our domino line so generation after generation will be able to proclaim the name of Jesus.

Written by Luke to Theophilus, Acts is a sequel to Luke’s earlier Gospel. Luke writes Acts to provide a historical record of the early church and show the trajectory of God's redemptive plan after the resurrection of Jesus. Acts reorients us to the mission of God today: a diverse church, filled with the Holy Spirit, dedicated to showing and sharing the gospel across the earth.

This reading plan is part of a series that will take you through the entire New Testament in a year. Each month's plan covers a specific book. April covers the second half of Acts and Pauls first letter to the Thessalonians. Read the daily passage first, reflect on one or more of the questions, then try the engagement practice.

Daily Bible Reading is designed to facilitate consistent interaction with Scripture. It includes background information on each day’s Scripture passage and key verse for meditation, reflection questions to help you dive deeper into Scripture, a prayer and prayer concern to help you connect to God and be of spiritual support to others. Journey with us this month as we explore the theme “God’s Word of Spiritual Renewal.”

This is the third part of a reading plan that works through every verse in the Old Testament once, every verse in the New Testament three times, and the Psalms eight times over three years following the lectionary pattern of reading in the Psalms, Old Testament, and New Testament each day.
