Family is more than shared DNA—it is built on love, commitment, and the willingness to say, “I choose you.” Throughout the Bible, we see powerful examples of children raised outside their biological families—yet they are loved, nurtured, and called by God for a purpose. Scripture shows us that family is not just about birth, but about choice. For those considering foster care, adoption, or other forms of family care, this devotional explores how God’s heart for chosen families is woven into His plan of redemption—and how we are called to care for children in need of family.

Disability is a theme from Genesis through Revelation. Through this devotion, we'll look at passages that form our theology of disability. Knowing what the Bible says about disability helps us know how to think about disabilities and how to treat people with disabilities (including ourselves if we are diagnosed with a disability). Let's make sure that theology has a firm foundation that will hold up when we are ministering to people with disabilities and their families. To do that, we're going to look at God's plan, God's purpose, God's provision, God's place, and God's promise in disability.

You’ll discover how God restores identity, renews purpose, and invites you to take your place at the King’s table.

The Bible begins with, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty.” But clearly, that was not a problem for God.

Let’s pray and ask him to fill up our emptiness.

Inspired by ‘the toilet table’ in a popular British sitcom, this plan is themed around different tables from both modern culture and the Bible. It examines what it’s like having your feet firmly planted under God’s table. God’s table is one where all are welcomed and all can find community, joy, forgiveness, and feasting. Each daily devotion is a tale of two tables - one which doesn’t represent God’s table well, and one which strongly does. If you don’t like the table you are currently sitting at, be encouraged that God is able to turn the tables!

Unlikely is a journey through the lives of ordinary people God used in extraordinary ways. From Joseph to Barnabas to Moses, each story reveals how weakness, failure, and obscurity are no barrier to God’s call. These unlikely figures remind us that encouragement, courage, and faith are forged in everyday moments, and that God’s presence makes the impossible possible. As you read, you’ll be invited to see yourself in their stories, to pay attention to the burning bushes in your own life, and to trust that God is not finished with you yet.

David united the kingdom, established Jerusalem as the capital city, and extended the territory of Israel.
