Often we are caught up in the urgent demands of the day-to-day, and then years go by, and we realize we have not been making the small choices that will get us where we actually wanted to be.

Starting over can feel daunting, especially after a big failure or losing someone or something you love.

This plan explores the four biggest obstacles to starting over and how Jesus equips us to overcome them with His power and strength.

Emotions—love them or hate them—we’ve all got them. And we’ve all got to figure out what to do with them. But wait. Can we do anything about emotions? Can we learn how to identify, express, experience—and yes, sometimes wrangle—our feelings in order to live a vibrant, healthy life for Jesus? These devotions will equip you with the Biblical perspectives and practical tools you need to thrive.

Picking up where 2 Chronicles ends, Ezra describes the return of exiles to Jerusalem and the eventual rebuilding of the temple. Using the influence of pagan kings and unbelieving rulers, God was faithful to bring his people back to the land and reestablish worship at the temple.

Worship should be in every part of a believer’s life, all the way from silence to song. Worship is the songs you sing, your silence in prayer, and how you use your time and money. It doesn't just belong to the Sunday morning worship team. This 7-day plan will encourage you with instruction from the Bible in how to worship wholeheartedly, in every part of your life.

The book of Ezra is all about rebuilding the temple. And in Ezra chapter 3, we can glean step-by-step instructions on the preparation process for starting something new. Whether you are starting a new ministry, a new business, or a new role at work or church, this plan will arm you with all you need to get ready.

Unlimited Relationship will show you that the God who created the heavens and the earth, is the same God who came down to earth so that He might have a personal relationship with you and me. You will see that God does not just want to be your Lord, but He also wants to be your friend. He wants you to know Him for who He really is.

This devotional aims to help you to see that you can be free! Free from guilt, free to love, free in Christ to know Him and serve Him with everything you have. We want you to fully surrender yourself to Christ and have true repentance. It’s time to revive your soul, embrace your freedom in Christ, and enjoy Him. Join us for the Connecting Ministries FREEDOM Devotional!

The book of Haggai is certainly not the best-known book of the Bible. It only has two chapters and is about rebuilding the temple in Jerusalem, which is not a major topic of interest for present-day Christians. But when we read carefully and attentively, this book contains valuable lessons for believers from all centuries and from all over the planet.

From Genesis to Revelation, “God’s Redemption Story” outlines the narrative of God’s plan for the reconciliation of humanity. This 12-part reading plan summarizes the story of the Bible. 1 Kings through Ezra begins the fall of a fractured Israel yet God remains faithful to His people.

This reading plan is taken from the NIV Discover God's Heart Bible, which delves into the different ways that God expresses His love for us throughout the Bible.
