There is possibly no more carefully navigated response than to the question “How Ya Feeling?” We long for and loath this question because we must either remain at the surface or expose what lies beneath. Jesus reminds us that to feel is to be human; to feel is to walk through valleys and mountains; to feel is to imitate Christ. Learn to properly engage your emotions to be like Christ.

How Ya Feeling?

Engage in a personal reflection and conversation with God as you read through His words. Join Peter Kairuz (host of The 700 Club Asia) and together let us examine our hearts today.

How Is Your Heart Today?

We have all failed in various ways at one point or another. Failure is not something you can always avoid. It can happen in relationships, where you work, and in everyday life. How we respond to it can help us move forward. This devotion seeks to help those who have failed and how to overcome it.

Failure

Many Christians struggle with anger. It is a dangerous, powerful, yet confusing emotion. The Bible differentiates between righteous and sinful anger. It also provides tools to overcome the latter. This devotional helps believers to understand anger, know its roots, and learn how to control it. Christians can live their lives filled with emotions that are pleasing to the Lord. 

How to Deal With My Anger

A plan for those on a journey to become better, not bitter.

Finding My Father

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this heart transforming devotional. Anger wants to lead you on a path of destruction, rejection and shame. When anger rules you, your heart becomes chained to the act of the offense and your heart becomes lorded by the poison of the past. Choose to let the offense go. Choose to forgive and let God wash away the pain of the past. 

Be Angry And Sin Not

Apologies — they’re hard to give, but they’re sometimes hard to receive, too. When you’re the one who has hurt someone else, saying you’re sorry (and actually meaning it) takes work and practice. But when you’re the one who’s been hurt by someone else, things get even more complicated. In this 20-day devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we'll unpack apologies and forgiveness.

No Problem

Being a “man of God” can be tough. Being a “young man of God” can be even tougher. This devotional will focus on the three areas in which young men are most frequently tempted: their Ways (i.e., temper), their Words (i.e., language), and their Wants (i.e., physical and emotional desires). It will also discuss the appropriate Biblical response(s) to maintaining self-control and moral purity in the face of such temptations.

The Ways, Words, and Wants of Young Men

In their day-to-day life, many Christians struggle with discouragement, disillusionment, or even depression. Sadly, some believers are afraid to be open with others about such emotional battles. This devotional explains how the biblical heroes handled the times of emotional turmoil that they went through. It also tells the believers how to overcome their internal struggles with the help of the Word of God and their church family. 

How Christians Should Deal With Depression 

Few things spark greater anger than a betrayal. And carrying the pain and trauma with you can ignite an unquenchable resentment that leaves you hopeless and despondent. When you’re overcome with bitterness, you need to know there is a God who understands and can help reconcile your pain. This plan will help you understand your anger and how to extinguish it with peace. 

Extinguish Anger 

Life gives us opportunities to be a light to the world as we interact with people.  We will be challenged, offended, tempted, hurt?  It is a part of life.  The question is how will we react and what words will come out of our mouths? This is the real testing-ground for our faith.

Will You Act Or React?

Stop The Fighting - Part 2: Breaking The Cycles Of Unhealthy Conflict

Have you been hurt?  Chances are, you probably have. But it’s not okay to stay hurt. Because that’s unforgiveness, and it’s like drinking poison and expecting the other guy to die – it’s eating your lunch. God doesn’t want you to hurt anymore! Forgiveness is the only way to cut the chain of hurt and bitterness so you can be free.  This reading plan contains excerpt from Karen’s book “I Forgive You, But….” 

I Forgive You, But…

We all have a tendency to hate on others. We can be pretty quick to judge. The problem? We were made for a different kind of world—a world designed for love, not hate. In this 15-day devotional, we’ll explore what it looks like to lead with love rather than judgement and make a move toward landing on the right side of the line.

Love/Hate

There’s a lot of negativity that comes at you each day — things you have no control of. But you  can  take a lot of trash out of your life by reducing your trash talk when it comes to anger, lying, judging and more.

Trash Talk

When we enthusiastically promise to love, honor, and cherish our imperfect spouse, we have no idea how we are going to successfully fulfill that vow.

You’re going through pain, but your cries for relief seem to go unanswered. This Life.Church Bible Plan will guide you through Scriptures to read When God Doesn’t Make Sense.

When God Doesn't Make Sense

Often, the issues we face in marriage are just on the surface and we don’t take the time to dig deeper. A marriage will never be healthier than the two people in it.

Seven Deadly Sins and Your Marriage
