Journey with Jesus – Lent Devotional on YouVersion
‘Journeying With Jesus’ is a Bible plan to help us walk with Jesus through the last two chapters of Matthew. We stop to focus on Jesus' last days on this earth and what that means to us. How does that change who I am and Whose I am today? We will take time to dwell on ...
Behind the Scenes – The Esther Story (YouVersion Bible Plan)
Esther’s legacy is of a strong woman who risked her life to save her people. While that is undoubtedly true, there’s so much more to the story. Esther is a book where we, as readers, are invited to look behind the scenes. While Queen Esther is at the foreground of the drama, this Bible plan ...
It’s The Most Wonderful – And The Busiest – Time Of The Year (You Version Devotional)
I absolutely love all the buzz around Christmas. I love the carols and the cookies, the parties and the pies, the decorations and the desserts (and, yes, I know I included a lot of food in that line, but, hey, just being real here).

Finding Rest In A Busy World
There’s no getting around the fact that we live in an always-spinning world. We yearn for quietness in our souls – but, often, that deep rest seems out of our reach. Or is it? In the next few days, let’s spend a few minutes peeking into the home of Mary and Martha in Bethany. Two ...
40 Days of Journeying with Jesus – A Lent Devotional
Day 1
Dwell On Matthew 26: 6-13
We start the Lent devotional with someone who truly got it. Mary, the sister of Martha and Lazarus, actually understood. In fact, she understood more than the indignant disciples who tried to stop her from “wasting” the perfume on Jesus. She, perhaps, understood that Jesus wouldn’t be with them much longer.
