Acts 23:10, 27

How we view our work – in service to ourselves or in service to others – makes all the difference in our ability to be witnesses for Christ. Paul gives us a powerful example of what it looks like to shift from self-interest to serving others so that we can be a light for Christ at work.  

In 50 carefully selected passages from the Bible, you will discover the essential question Paul asked the Lord while he was traveling to Damascus: "What shall I do, Lord?" Have you ever asked yourself, "What difference am I making with my life?" On some level, we all struggle to find our own answer to that fundamental question. The search for significance is the underlying motivation for virtually all human activity.

The way of Jesus calls for courage. And Jesus will give it. This 5-day plan continues a journey through the book of Acts, the Bible’s gripping sequel of Jesus at work in the life of his followers as he expands his kingdom to the ends of the earth. It’s a journey on what it means to be a Christian. It’s a story in which you have a role to play.

This six-day devotional walks through the final chapters of Acts and invites you to reflect on what faithful Christian living really looks like in the real world. Through Paul’s journey from Jerusalem to Rome, you will see that following Jesus often leads through opposition, delay, suffering, and uncertainty, yet God remains faithful to his promises. Each day explores how the gospel confronts us, forms us, and empowers us to live as witnesses of Jesus wherever God places us.
