“Be good!” is something children hear over and over again—from their parents, teachers, and even bossy older siblings. But what does “goodness” actually look like?

Each day includes a prayer prompt, brief Scripture reading and explanation, hands-on activity, and discussion questions.

People often say, “Give God your burdens.” Do you ever wonder: How do I do that? The brokenness of the world feels too heavy. And as much as you desire to shine the light of Jesus, you wonder what that looks like when you struggle to see the light yourself.

I’ve discovered something surprising: living for myself is a lot of work. Focusing on how to be the best “me” sounds freeing, but it is actually a crushing weight—because God calls us to know the joy of focusing first on him.

With so many responsibilities and distractions vying for our attention, too many of us have built unhealthy cycles of rest. As a result, we burn ourselves out, striving and straining against God's intent for our lives. In this plan, we are called to the intentional work of self-examination, helping us to move toward a purposeful and sustainable life with Jesus.

Are you tired of playing it safe with your faith? Are you ready to face your fears, build your faith, and unleash your potential? This 7-day Bible Plan from Life.Church Pastor Craig Groeschel’s book, Dangerous Prayers, dares you to pray dangerously—because following Jesus was never meant to be safe.

In a busy world, we have to make space for the things that matter most. We have to learn to apply godly wisdom that will help you incorporate these activities into your busy life. In some cases, you will find that you are doing the wrong things. Or you might find that you are doing the right things for the wrong reason or in the wrong way, so they are not life-giving or fulfilling. 

The Bible tells us that "in His presence is fullness of joy" and that "the joy of the Lord is our strength". Joy isn't simply another emotion; it is a fruit of the Spirit and one of the best weapons in your arsenal to fight against discouragement, depression, and defeat. Learn what the Bible has to say about joy, and strengthening yourself to become a defiantly joyful Christian.
