1 CORINTIOS 3:23

“Different…why can’t they see it’s hard to be different.” This devotion explores our identity, purpose, and strength in Christ. Be encouraged that God LOVES differences and variety, and that these are actually gifts. Stand your ground, be proud of who you’ll become, and don’t ever run or hide from who you really are.

Jesus says his disciples are in the world, but not of the world. This impacts the way we relate to the people of the world we meet. We see this with Paul in Acts 17. This 5-day plan continues our 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.

In this week of devotionals, we will explore some of the big ideas from the book of 1 Corinthians, written by the apostle Paul, and consider what it means to be men set apart for the sake of Christ! Written by J.R. Hudberg.

The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is a yearly reminder of Jesus’ prayer for his disciples that “they may be one so that the world may believe” (see John 17.21). The theme in 2021, “Abide in my love and you shall bear much fruit” (John 15:5-9) was prepared by the Sisters of Grandchamp in Switzerland. Join our journey of prayer! May it bear fruits of reconciliation and solidarity.
