Presence and Purpose: The Mission of Jesus in the Book of Acts (30-day Student Devotional)

SERIES DESCRIPTION:

In this 12-volume series of monthly devotionals, students will gain a deeper biblical understanding of Jesus' presence throughout Scripture and the role He continues to play in our lives today. Students will learn to Discover God's Word, Delight in the Lord, and Display God's work in their lives.

Discover (Identity + Theology): Who is God? Who am I in light of who God is? These are two of the most important questions students can grapple with because in discovering who God is, they learn who He has meant for them to be. Studies within the Discover category will help students align their lives under God's rule which will give them confidence in who they were created to be.

Delight (Spiritual Disciplines): What does it mean to delight in God? What leads to delight in God? Helping students see God in every detail teaches them to delight in Him. When students find their delight in God, they will learn what it means and how to be in relationship with Him.

Display (Leadership, Mission, + Disciple Making): How do students display the glory of God? How do they help others grow in their relationship with Him? How can they lead others to display the truth of God?

Through students learning to lead, live on mission, and make disciples, God's glory is on display and His kingdom is expanded.

Each book includes 30 daily devotions, applicable Scripture, prayer prompts, and practical application.

Publisher Description

:Where did it begin?

Jesus ascending back to heaven might have been the end of His physical time on earth, but it was just the beginning of His plan for the world to know Him. It started with a mission He gave His disciples to be witnesses to who He is and what He did. They wouldn't go alone. His presence would fuel their purpose. This devotional will walk you through the book of Acts, where the story of the earliest days of the church is told. It will explore how the church started, how it grew, and how it continues to thrive two thousand years later. This is the beginning of the story we continue to live today.
