The Resistance - Week 04 Launch
Welcome
Welcome to Week 4 of the Resistance Reading Plan! This reading plan is designed to partner with Compassion Christian Church’s sermon series of the same name, which can be found here HERE. This series explores how the lies of the secular world can harm us, especially our mental health, but there are ways to resist those lies and find the abundant life that God wants for us. The reading plan will focus on the same things by guiding us through Scripture that speaks to those truths.
Christianity is unique from any other major world religion in many ways, but one of the most profound and beautiful things that followers of Jesus believe is that through the work of Jesus we have been brought back into a relationship with the Father. Colossians 1:21-22 says it this way: “You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault.” We don’t need priests or rituals between us and a holy God. We have been brought into his presence. Through His Word our God speaks to us and through prayer we speak back, allowing us to have a personal relationship with our Heavenly Father. May the truth of these things help you engage with this plan with wonder and joy!
Before We Start
We have another resource that is designed specifically for those who are struggling with anxiety that you may find helpful if you feel like you need guidance on how to become more mentally and spiritually healthy in this area. You can find that resource HERE.
