Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to Mark 11:8

Easter is a time of deep celebration and hope - but what do you do when you don't overly feel like celebrating? What happens when life doesn't quite turn out like you hoped? The reality is that the disciples felt the same way in the days before the Resurrection. You are in good company, take heart.

Our Creator loves all of His creatures, great and small. Humanity is the height of God’s creation on the earth, and we, therefore, share a special relationship with Him. Yet all kinds of birds and beasts make an appearance throughout the pages of Scripture. Each animal mentioned in the Bible shows you and me more about the Lord’s majestic creativity, as well as highlighting His compassion toward every living thing.

This Holy Week, we'll journey through some of the stories of people in the Bible who walked with Jesus through His life, death, and resurrection. We’ll learn lessons from them as we open our minds and hearts to believing that just because something ends doesn’t mean there isn’t something else in store. Even in the midst of loss, hurt, and disappointment, God’s not done yet. There’s more to the story.

Proverbs 31 is often mistaken as an unattainable job description when it's actually a character description of a woman of God's standard. Rather than seeking something worthy to do, this seven-day devotional helps us dig into this well-known passage in a new way: to passionately pursue who God purposely created us to be.

Work-life balance is often offered as the working woman's solution. But should it be? The pursuit of balance often results in an exhausted woman simultaneously striving to be who God says she is + who the world says she should be. The gospel offers a better way - His way.

Jesus “took the bread, blessed it, broke it, gave it to his disciples, and said, ‘This is my body given for you, do this in remembrance of me.’” In the same way, we too are taken, blessed, broken, given, and spoken in God’s love—that we might remember the body of Christ for a hurting world and become instruments of peace.

Mark uses the word “immediately” over forty times in his Gospel, emphasizing the intentional nature of Jesus’ ministry. The quick succession of healings and miracles shows that Jesus “came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:44). Through Mark’s Gospel, we are reminded that true greatness in God’s kingdom comes not through selfish ambition, but by being the servant of all.

God with Us: The Four Gospels Woven Together in One Telling is a captivating new book that looks and feels like a paperback novel.

This reading plan is not the full account of God with Us but takes you through select events during Jesus’ final week as he visits Jerusalem for the last time leading up to his death and resurrection.
