Easter - The Hope of Easter
Before Jesus, there was no hope. All of the hardships and uncertainties of life had no answer. But God sent Jesus to live a perfect life in a broken world, pay the ultimate sacrifice that erased our debt, and rose victoriously from the dead to give us eternal hope. No matter what global or personal trial you face, there’s victory in Jesus. Don’t let this Easter be just another holiday. Make it personal and find hope for whatever you’re facing. This booklet is available in English, French and Spanish.

Easter - The Promise of Forgiveness
Join us this Easter as we celebrate how Jesus’ death impacts our daily lives. His death was more than a sacrifice, it was a symbol of forgiveness. His undaunted actions in taking the consequences of sin for us through His death on the cross and rising from the dead give us pardon for the past, peace for the present and hope for the future. He has given us an eternal identity and source of fulfillment that nothing on earth can give. Discover how His act of forgiveness is how we are able to forgive others, even when it feels impossible. This booklet is available in English, French and Spanish.

Spanish: Pascua – promesa del perdón.
Peace to You! - Easter Edition
Find True and Lasting Peace
We all want peace. Real soul-satisfying peace. The good news is that it’s actually possible because of what Jesus did for us on the cross. He took the sin and pain of the world on His shoulders so that we can experience abundant life and peace—His shalom. God’s shalom means living in peace with God, peace with others, and peace with yourself. As you read these 10 reflections that tell more about this gift , may you experience the power and promise of His true peace now and always. This booklet is available in English, French and Spanish.
English – Peace to You!
French – La paix de Dieu!
Jesus, Light of the World
We have all experienced darkness. Jesus said, “I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark” (John 12:46 NLT). His light rescues us and illuminates our shadows. He asks us to trust Him. As you read these 10 devotions during this Christmas season, may they reignite the astonishment and wonder you experience when He brings light into your world with His presence—as He does for all of us.
Available in French (Jésus, lumière du monde) and Spanish (Jesús, la luz del mundo) too!
