5 Days
Christians are different. They can’t help it. When you’re born again and filled with the Spirit, it changes you. This leads to different values about right and wrong, and a different lifestyle to match it. This series of 5-day plans uses the 10 Commandments (following the classic Augustinian ordering) as a vehicle for an alternative, Christ-like morality and Jesus-way of living.
6 Days
This plan offers a 6-day journey through the book of 1 Timothy, making it ideal for both individual and group study.
7 Days
This 7-day devotional is for anyone who has struggled with wayward family members. Do you walk a tightrope between living your life faithfully and coping with difficult family members in a way that is pleasing to God? Every family has a struggle or two with hurt and dysfunction. May this plan help to guide you as you strive to relate to misguided family members.
A good lens to read 1 Timothy through is 1 Timothy 1:5, where Paul writes, Now the goal of our instruction is love that comes from a pure heart, a good conscience, and a sincere faith. Over the next 7 days we will explore this small and amazing book.
