Psalms 88:11-13

None of us is exempt from loss. We lose what we expected, what we believed, our sense of security or identity. We lose those we love. What do we do with the disruption, disorientation, and devastation of loss? How do we survive the questions about God that happen in dark nights of the soul? In this five-day Bible study, you’ll discover raw, fought-for spiritual wisdom and hope in Christ.

Prayer is more than a religious routine. It is a relationship with God. In this 7-day devotional, discover what Jesus teaches about prayer, why it matters, how to pray honestly, and how to persevere when prayer feels difficult. Through Scripture and reflection, you will learn to speak with God as your Father, listen for His guidance, and cultivate a deeper life of communion with Him.

Between Friday's crucifixion and Sunday's resurrection sits Saturday — sealed tombs, locked doors, extinguished hope, silence from heaven. The disciples don't know it's only one day. They know only that everything has ended on a cross. Most of us know Holy Saturday. Not the calendar day — but the experience of it. The space between promise and fulfillment. Between what God said and what you can currently see. This plan is not a collection of reassurances. It is a theological reframing of the dark middle itself — and a case, made from Scripture, that you are not alone in it.

Advent is, of course, a time to prepare. To prepare our homes, lives, and our hearts. Join us as we explore the Bible readings used by the Church to challenge, encourage, and help us prepare, not only to celebrate the incarnation but also the second coming of Christ.
