What is baptism? Should I get baptized? Why is it important? Do I have to get baptized to be a Christian? Whether you have questions about baptism or you’re simply looking for a short devotional to read before or after being baptized, this Life.Church Bible Plan is perfect for starting today. 

Have you lost your job? Are you not where you thought you would be at this point in your life and career? Is your business not going as well as you had hoped? Take heart, believer! Know that you are not alone. Adversity and failure are inevitable as we take risks in this life. As the Scriptures in this plan will reveal, our response to failure can be one of the most powerful means of sanctification and preaching the gospel to those around us.

Have you felt your prayers go unanswered on your journey of late?  Like your prayers are hollow words bouncing in an empty room? These guided audio meditations will help give you peace that God hears your words.  No matter the words.  No matter the language.  God is attentive to you and the prayers of your heart.

God has given all of us a gift so amazing and so incredible that most people don’t know what to do with it. This gift is grace, and in this plan, Dr. Tony Evans teaches about the grace of God and how all encompassing it truly is.

Our minds and schedules are so preoccupied that we’ve forgotten how to rest. And when we fail to rest we do more than burn ourselves out—we misunderstand the God who calls us to rest and created us to be people of rest. So when we learn the art of sabbath keeping, we learn to rest and we learn about the One who gives us rest.

In this plan we will read through the "king" passages of grace. We will memorize 6 words: You Were, But God, So That. We were dead, but God rescued us, so that we will have grace for ages to come. God wants us to follow Him, and grace is the seed that makes spiritual growth and maturity possible. Grace is ever growing, deeper and bigger than we know. With grace, discipleship is possible. 

From deleted text messages to casual relationships. From diapers to styrofoam cups. Everything in our lives seems disposable. Toss it out because you can always get another one. The theme of these guided audio meditations is permanence - divine permanence. You will be discovering the permanent indwelling of the Holy Spirit within you, the light of God within you, and the love of God within you.

This may be hard, but take a moment to recall how you react emotionally when falsely accused or criticized unfairly. The theme for these guided audio meditations is finding the love of God in the face of false accusations and then meditating on God’s peace so we know how to respond when criticized. And, finally, a meditation to help reflect God’s grace, so others see Him in all you do.

Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that.” That is the theme of these guided audio meditations: shining light into darkness. Your first meditation will help you center on the light of God within you. In the second meditation, you will become more mindful of God’s light shining out. Finally, a meditation on God choosing you to light the world around you.

When things go wrong, it is not always the devil’s handiwork. It could just as easily be God putting an obstacle in your path so you can grow from overcoming that struggle. In this insightful reading plan, Tony Evans teaches how difficulties happen for reasons beyond our comprehension.

Have you ever listened but not heard or looked and not seen? I pray these biblical meditations will help you see with new eyes. To move from old eyes to new. To go from a tired life to finding fresh new faith. You will be more mindful of God’s precious gift of faith and the permanent indwelling of the Holy Spirit of God within you. An entirely new perspective!

Have you ever looked up and wondered, “How did I get here?” The theme for these guided biblical meditations is being mindful of danger but at peace that you are protected. We can expect persecution, but we need not live in fear for the Shepherd is with us. I pray these reflections will help you take some time to float lazily along and receive peace from God.

How do you approach God? How do you approach His throne? I pray these guided audio meditations will help you learn to humble yourself in the Divine presence and submit to the arms of God. I hope you will discover the importance of approaching life with a humble spirit as you seek genuine delight and joy. Desiring to come close to God for the simple reason of merely coming close.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created an interesting moment in which who is deemed an “essential worker” has been flipped on its head. As this 3-day plan will show, this flip gives us a beautiful preview of what’s to come in the Kingdom of Heaven, where Jesus promised that some workers will be “great” and others will be “least.”

Many times we focus so much on our weaknesses, that we are unable to see our blessings. The story of Paul gives us great encouragement on shifting our mindset and perspective. Paul’s life is a wonderful example of how God's grace is sufficient even in our weaknesses.

Get a glimpse into the rich truths in Bishop Courtney McBath’s book, Living at the Next Level. We weren’t meant to simply survive, or take hold of salvation merely to go to heaven. Instead, God desires us to take hold of the abundant, joyful, rewarding life that comes as a direct result of communion and relationship with Him!

Holy Week is an invitation to journey with Christ. As we learn to walk the way of the cross with him, may we be inspired to take up our own cross in sacrificial obedience and true humility. This week, our Lord reminds us that darkness gives way to light, and death will not have the final word!

The God Provides series offers a rich, dramatic journey through theater-quality, short films which show us wisdom, truth, encouragement and practical steps to deepen a relationship of trust with God.

Join bestselling author Tony Evans, as he explores how faith and works fit together.
