Hebrews 11 highlights many of the heroes of the Bible, including Jacob. The deeper you dig into Jacob's life, you begin to see that he’s a mess.

Let’s walk through the life of Jacob, and see his life transformed by the grace of God.

Have you ever wondered about your purpose in this life? Some seek their so-called destiny for a lifetime and never find it, while others seem to embrace a calling in which they find fulfillment.

Fear is a venom and toxic to your body. Faith is the antivenom to fear. Just as light crushes darkness, so faith dispels fear. According to Romans, you’ve been given faith, “God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.” If you want to walk in your God-given destiny, you must cultivate it. Put your faith to work and watch it grow while your fears and anxieties dissipate.

Have you ever wondered how to hear God's voice or questioned a prompting you had to step out in faith? Here I Am uncovers how you can distinguish God's voice from distractions, gives you the confidence to step out when God calls your name, and shows you how sowing in obedience reaps eternal rewards.

We hope you’ll learn the importance of trusting God through difficult times and learning to forgive those who hurt or disappoint you.

The Bible reading each day should take about 30 minutes.

Waiting. We all experience seasons of life when we are waiting on something - a spouse, a baby, healing, a job, or for what God has next in your life.

Learn from Joseph how to trust God while you wait on Him!

In the fifth and final part of our Genesis plan, we'll see the story of Joseph and his family come full circle! Read about the amazing saga of Joseph's reunion with his brothers and his father and Jacob's final blessings over his sons. You'll also get to see some beautiful parallels to the gospel of Jesus in these chapters!

This plan will lead you through the journey of Joseph as well as the life of other dreamers who saw God’s plan in everything. Join us as we read their stories throughout the Bible.
