WEEKLY THEMES
We are here to help you grow in your relationship with Jesus and expand your Kingdom influence. So, each week, we provide new resources, including a short story, a two-minute blog and accompanying video, guides for our 3•2•1 (Head, Heart, Hands Bible Encounter), and God Conversations.
These resources are also available in French and Spanish in our Resource Portal.
The world has been broken almost since the beginning of time. Humanity, separated from God by its own choice, has labored in vain to find its way forward. Though rejected by His own creation, God has never abandoned his rebellious children. Even before the dawn of time, He knew what He would have to do to offer His beloveds a way back to Himself, a way that only He could make.

When a human soul is born broken, it's like entering the world as a shattered mirror. Each fragment reflects a distorted piece of reality, and the cracks and jagged edges remind us that it is impossible to truly see ourselves for who we really are. And more importantly, how God sees you.
Can we truly understand why our world is in such a mess by exploring the cracks and crevices splintered across each of our own reflections?

The word "hypocrite" is the Greek word meaning "mask-wearer." Nobody likes a hypocrite, but all of us are prone to wearing masks. We often wear them to protect ourselves, make good impressions, or even control others. Regardless of the mask, the truth is we are hiding something or hiding from something. However, Jesus invites us to take the masks off and face our vulnerabilities. In turn, He gives us lives of fulfillment and fruitfulness that surpass anything we could ever hope for.

What do you see when you look in the mirror? Do you see someone defined by their past, defined by their secrets, defined by their mistakes, defined by whom they are attracted to, defined by what others say about them, or defined by what they want others to see? Is identity subjective or carved in stone? What if your identity is actually something far more beautiful and profound than you ever thought?

Every human being is a creature of faith. We all put our trust in someone or something. It might be significance, safety, power, or possessions. However, none of those will satisfy a person's longing. Trusting Jesus is the only sure way. Yet it can be scary when we don't know where or how He's leading us. Discover how to hold onto Him in those moments.

When it comes to uncomfortable situations, there are times when we have no choice but to go through them. But what if we looked at those moments as being gifts from God? What if He is tossing us into the deep end to reveal new things about Himself and us? Your stressful situation may become just what you need to strengthen your faith muscles.

Some people are better at taking risks than others. While some are willing to jump joyfully into the unknown, many are afraid to even take one step forward. God has a daring adventure prepared for you. Are you willing to embrace it? Remember, the heroes of the Bible were just ordinary people who said "yes" to following God into the unknown.

Deep inside, we each desire to make a difference in this world. We long to be part of an adventure that matters. But we often are content to experience that adventure vicariously through others. The truth is that each of us is custom-designed by God for a unique adventure. But if we aren't willing to explore it, we will never experience it.
