John 13:1 සම්බන්ධව නිදහස් කියවීමේ සැලසුම් සහ පූජනීයත්වය

On the night he was betrayed, Jesus humbly washed the feet of each of his disciples. The Gospel of John uses seven key words to describe the scene. Learn how these seven words anticipate the entire ministry of Jesus, from his incarnation, to his death on the cross, and finally, to his glorious resurrection!

As the Lord has called us to become leaders, we sometimes have misconceptions about the role given to us and struggle to define the kind of leader God wants us to be, missing the joy of serving people. This 3-day plan includes a self-reflective and practical call to action in building leadership that values relationships, not position. There is also meaningful discussion material for growth groups and teams at work.

On Easter, we celebrate the hope of new life that Jesus brings into each of our lives, and even more, into the whole world. The earth-shattering thing that happened on this day changes everything. In this four-day series from Words of Hope, consider the life-changing hope of Easter as we read John's account of Jesus' death and resurrection.

Two thousand years ago Jesus decided the best way to share his good news was through a small group of committed friends. We don’t think he ever changed his plan. Join us in discovering how Jesus led his group and what principles from his life and leadership you can apply to yours.

This is a series of short Holy Week reflections beginning with the events on Maundy Thursday, and ending with Resurrection Sunday. They are also glimpses inside the act of Creation itself. When we enter Holy Week we have a front-row seat to God’s creative process. In the end, we discover ourselves as co-creators in Christ, participating in the ongoing act of Creation.

Consecrating our lives to God's purpose implies service that expresses greatness and power. This service is not a mere duty but a personal connection with Jesus. It cannot flourish when we are motivated by guilt, duty, or shame. Join me in this plan to discover the characteristics of a service that connects with Jesus's heart and deepens our personal relationship with Him.

If you were making an ice cream sundae, you wouldn’t top it with ketchup or fermented tuna liver – they just don’t belong there! In our lives as followers of Jesus, pride has no place in the picture. Join us as we learn about the ingredient every believer’s life should include: humility!

Are you letting your lack of authority paralyze you? One of the greatest myths of leadership is that you must be in charge in order to lead. Great leaders don't buy it. Great leaders lead with or without the authority and learn to unleash their influence wherever they are.

Sometimes it’s hard to love people – even the ones that are closest to us. We admittedly find it easier to love them than those whom we don’t really get along with. In Plan 13 we see Jesus’ love on full display when He chooses to be a servant and when He chooses to still love those who will betray Him. Are we willing to love others on this level?

Embark on a journey to learn more about the life of Jesus. Together we will watch short clips from the film, The Life of Jesus, and reflect on what we see.

This five day devotional is geared towards helping you to engage with scripture in quiet reflection.

Choosing to worship helps us keep our eyes on Jesus, even when life's crazy. When we focus on Him, our brokenness is restored, our anxiety turns into hope, and we become more united. This 5-day plan will give you practical steps to worship through it, whatever IT is, along with how to love one another, even when it's hard. So, today, we hope you'll choose to Worship Through It, Together.

Holy Week is such an important time of reflection in the Christian life. We pray these devotionals will lead you with joy and anticipation for the risen Christ. As you celebrate today, and every day, remember to be expectant. Remember to serve. Remember the blood. Remember the deafening silence. Remember to be surprised. For in Christ, you have life and you have it abundantly.

Service is the fourth in a series of studies that helps you establish a strong biblical foundation as a follower of Jesus. In this plan, you will explore how the calling to follow Jesus inevitably involves humble service of others and you will discover some important biblical ways of serving.

The Bible tells us that the one true God who created the universe chose to “move into the neighborhood” and reveal himself to humanity. What does that mean for his followers? How can we show up for others like Jesus did for the world?

Jesus, our loving King. The long-awaited Saviour of the world. Prophesied for centuries. Expected and anticipated by generations. However, although He was expected, His life was anything but what people thought it would look like. In this plan, together, let's marvel and reflect on the unexpected life of our gracious King who saved not only you and me, but the world!

Near the end of his life, John was the last of the living apostles and wrote a story about Jesus. It’s his testimony of who Jesus is, what he said, what he did, and who he claimed to be. Jesus has a story. He invites us to make it our story. When we make Jesus’s story our story, we have life in his name. This plan focuses on John 13 and Jesus serving his disciples in the Upper Room. It is part of an ongoing series through John.

For many of us, the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection is a familiar one. But, what about the week before? The days that lead up to Jesus’ death are filled with stories that give us insight into how he fulfilled God’s plan for creation in an unexpected, but powerful way. Experience his humanity and love for us as you walk with him through his final week on Earth.

The five major holy days of Passion Week - Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter Sunday - invite us on a narrative journey through pivotal moments in the life and ministry of Jesus. Join us on this 5-day devotional journey where we walk the path of victory, servitude, betrayal, death, and burial to experience, all the more profoundly, the power of the resurrection.

Journey through the Passion of Jesus this Easter Week in a way you never have before. Just like Jesus did on Holy Thursday, see Him wash the feet of His friends and betrayers through powerful artwork and creative reflections. Get ready for Jesus to flip the tables of your heart through these viral ©️ Footwashing Series images.

One way to view life’s most painful journeys is through the prism of grieve, breathe, receive (GBR). When Friday’s sudden darkness (grief) leads to Saturday’s confusion and questions (breathe), we eagerly await Sunday’s resurrected peace and possibility (receive). Along the way, we can embrace the process or resist it. I pray that in these devotionals, you will glimpse the power of grace, mercy, love, and hope for your own journey.

Funk [fuhngk]: a depressed state of mind. What do you do when a funk falls out of the sky and thuds into your relationships? It’s not that you hate each other, but things just aren’t right. The Bible has a lot to say about de-funking our relationships. Join us as we peek into 5 of the “One Anothers” that the Bible offers us as funk fixers.
