When I realized I was living as a nominal Christian, I saw how much I was missing of the depth and power of true faith in Jesus. Over the next five days, we’ll explore five lies I once believed and see how God faithfully rescues us from them, leading us into new life in Christ.
- 2Toxin #1: I’ve Always Been a ChristianDiscover why growing up in church, knowing Christian language, or inheriting a family’s faith is not the same as being born again. This reading invites you to examine whether your faith is based on religious familiarity or a personal, saving relationship with Jesus.
- 3Toxin #2: I’m OK Just Trying to Be GoodBeing moral, generous, or religious cannot make you right with God. Through the story of the rich young ruler, you’ll examine what may be competing for your heart and discover why salvation comes through trusting and surrendering to Jesus, not through your own goodness.
- 4Toxin #3: I Read a Bible Verse Now and ThenA daily verse can encourage you, but it cannot replace deeply engaging with God’s Word. Learn why context matters, how the whole Bible points to Jesus, and how reading complete passages and books can help you know God more fully and allow His truth to shape your life.
- 5Toxin #4: I Might Sin a Little, But Not the Big KindsNo sin is harmless. This reading will help you recognize the danger of becoming comfortable with sin and show you how the Holy Spirit empowers you to resist temptation. You’ll also be reminded that God faithfully forgives and cleanses those who honestly confess their sins.
- 6Day 5: I’m Too Hopeless for God to HelpGrief and depression can make hope feel impossible, but your pain does not place you beyond God’s reach. Discover how Jesus meets you in sorrow, transforms grief, and gives you a living hope grounded not in changing circumstances, but in His resurrection and presence.
