Focus on what matters most this Christmas.

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

Do you ever feel like the holidays come and go before you’ve even had a chance to focus on the true reason for the season?

This year, don’t miss the moments leading up to Christmas.

Advent begins today, and it’s a great way to prepare our hearts to celebrate our Savior’s birth by reflecting on the hope, peace, love, and joy that Jesus brought to the world. Get started by completing an Advent Plan:

Discover God’s Vision For Your Life

Person looking at mountains

You were made for this.

And I heard the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.”

ISAIAH 6:8

Do you ever wish you were a part of something more? We all want our lives to be meaningful, but despite our best efforts, it’s easy to feel unfulfilled and unable to make an impact.

What if we could partner with God to live our lives with purpose? What if instead of asking God to do something for us, we asked God to use us?

Asking God for direction can seem daunting, but He is always available to provide direction. One way to discover God’s vision for your life is by deliberately seeking Him every day through His Word.

BibleProject: New Testament: 1 Thessalonians – 2 Timothy

BibleProject: Read Scripture - New Testament

We want to help you to read through the Bible without getting lost or giving up. This series has a video for every New Testament book of the Bible that outlines its literary design and main ideas, showing you how it fits into the entire biblical story.

1 Thessalonians

1 Thessalonians

Paul comforts the Thessalonian Christians in the midst of persecution and fear. He directs their hope to the future return of Jesus who will bring justice and make all things right.

2 Thessalonians

2 Thessalonians

Paul brings more comfort to the persecuted Thessalonian Christians. He also clarifies his teaching about Jesus’ future return and challenges people whose selfish lifestyles are causing trouble in the church.

1 Timothy

1 Timothy

Paul guides Timothy in how to restore order to the church in Ephesus. It’s been disrupted by corrupt leaders who are leading the people astray. Here Paul offers a wholistic vision of the church’s purpose and mission in the world.

2 Timothy

2 Timothy

Paul writes his final letter from prison, asking Timothy to come visit him before he’s executed. Paul offers a personal challenge to Timothy and shows us that following Jesus requires sacrifice and risk.
