Striving Together for the Gospel
“Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel; and in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God” (Philippians 1:27-28). We live in a world saturated…
Read MoreThere Are Millions Of New Bible Readers. What Next?
How Should We Respond to the Surge in Spiritual Hunger? Millions of people are reading the Bible for the first time. A generation of young people is flocking to stores (or app stores) to get one thing: Bibles. Charlie Kirk’s death has propelled the already steady rise of interest by over 36 percent. (WATCH: Scott Pauley speaks at the WV Capitol Charlie Kirk vigil). Around the world, the transformative truth of Scripture is gripping hearts and minds. I many cases, for the…
Read MoreOur Advocate: Jesus Christ the Righteous
“My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world” (1 John 2:1-2). A Divine Word Picture 1 John 2 opens with a vivid word picture – the believer standing in the Eternal Court of Heaven. He has confessed…
Read More“Enjoying the Journey” in Spanish
We are so grateful for the many open doors God has given this ministry recently. One exciting door is reaching Spanish-speaking people through the translation of Enjoying the Journey resources. (Click HERE to see our Spanish website.) God has raised up several faithful Christians who are working on several translation projects. We could not be more thrilled! To spearhead this effort, God has brought David Mora across our path. He is a faithful preacher and associate pastor. He loves the…
Read MoreWounds of Grief: Bible Truth for Broken Hearts
The greatest illustration of grief is a wound. Wounds vary in severity. Wounds heal differently. Different injuries leave different scars. Generally, there is a sudden shock as the initial pain and confusion set in. Then there is a severe ache that lessens over time. However, if you have been badly injured, even in the healing process, there is a tenderness. You bump it or stretch it – you feel that sharp pain once again. Grief is similar. The Wounds of…
Read More55 Prophecies Jesus Fulfilled
“Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.” (John 5:39) For the skeptic, the religious Jew, the seeker, or the Christian, very few points serve to clarify who Jesus is to the degree of prophecy. Jesus fulfilled over 300 prophecies of all kinds in His earthly life. From birth to ascension, His ministry on earth was marked by fulfilled prophecy. He proved that He was the Word made…
Read More20 Ways to Pray for the Grieving
How to Pray for the Grieving Every time we hear of the passing of a loved one, there is an overwhelming sense of inadequacy and helplessness. We want to DO something to help. We feel obligated to SAY the perfect thing. Frankly, words are empty and shallow in the face of loss. We cannot change the fact that our loved one must navigate loss. However, God, in His wisdom, has provided a way for every believer to help others in…
Read More52 Prayer Verses
52 Verses On Prayer from Scripture The greatest prayers begin in the Word of God. It is the Divine prayer Book. Much has been written on the subject of prayer, yet so little praying is done. Where are we to start? Start where God starts – the Word of God. Below we have compiled 52 of the great prayer passages in Scripture. While not exhaustive, this list will serve as a guide. You may choose to use one verse for…
Read MoreNavigating Grief
3 Truths For Navigating Grief The empty chair, the favorite song, or the old pictures trigger a deep sorrow for those who are no longer with us. In recent weeks, God has used Psalms 31 to minister to my own heart. It deals with grief and adversity. Whether it be in a single moment or a slow crippling illness, all of us have experienced some measure of loss. No two people have the same experience. No two deaths are felt the…
Read MoreA Normal Day
Men are famous for their extraordinary days, but they are forged on their ordinary days. We revel in the accomplishments and bemoan the failures of others, yet, those highest and lowest points are marks on a lifetime of normal days. Study the Book of Acts. While it records many miraculous events, we tend to forget the countless normal days the Apostles lived. Many days you would have seen Paul walking down a Roman road, sailing on a ship, working his…
Read MoreGod’s Word and Our Way
God’s Word and Our Way We are creatures of habit. While the levels of habitual behavior vary from person to person, all of us tend to do many things the same way. For some, it’s a daily routine, for others, it’s their favorite chair; some like to travel the same roads, and others like to eat their food a certain way. Scientist have long studied the cause of our habits. Yet, despite decades of research, all they can determine is…
Read MorePresident Washington’s Prayer
President Washington’s Prayer This is a challenging season for our nation and for the world. Entire nations are reeling from leaders who will not seek Almighty God. The laws of a land reflect the morals and priorities of that country’s leaders – and often the strongest voices. As Israel of old, we risk the judgment of God because we “call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet…
Read More21 Bible Prayers for Government Leaders
In seasons like this, it is easy to become frustrated with the corruption, inaction, and incompetence we observe in government. It is not just in the United States either. While we as Americans have the right and duty to vote, the Apostle Paul instructed Timothy “That, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in…

Read MoreIndispensable Factors In Revival
Jonathan Goforth was a man who experienced the power of God in His life. This mighty preacher preached all over the world and made a difference for eternity. He was deeply impacted by the work of Hudson Taylor and committed himself to evangelism. Goforth is considered one of the greatest evangelists in history. This article is an excerpt from his work, “By My Spirit.” This chapter has been lightly adapted for better reading. We pray these timeless truths will stir…
Read MoreMinistering In A Digital World
Ministering In A Digital World We live in a digital world. Whether we like it or not, most people live online. In a space teeming with filth and wickedness, believers can use these tools to point people to the truth. We cannot control what the world pushes, but we can faithfully declare the truth in a digital age. There is no substitute for personal evangelism or the local church, but technology creates an avenue to carry the truth where you…
Read MoreCalling Young Preachers!
If ever there was a time for preachers to preach God’s Word, it is now! More people are alive today than ever before. There is a great need for preachers who will faithfully proclaim the truth. In a world of chaos, we need the foundation of God’s Word; amid the misery, we need the joy that the Good News brings. The continuance of truth from generation to generation is only possible if two things happen: The older generation is obedient…
Read More“I Don’t Know Who to Believe Anymore!”
“I Don’t Know Who to Believe Anymore!” Recently, I heard a group of ladies speaking at a restaurant. The conversation revolved around current events and the chaos in our world. After some time, an older lady who hadn’t said very much blurted out desperately, “I just don’t know who to believe anymore!” She is not alone. Millions go through life wondering who can be trusted. We live with enormous amounts of information, yet it is increasingly difficult to know what…
Read MoreWho Were Aquila and Priscilla?
Who Were Aquila and Priscilla? There are many famous names in Scripture: Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Deborah, David, Solomon, Esther, Daniel, and others. Yet, few know much about Aquila and Priscilla. However, God used this wonderful couple in an eternal way in the early church. The first time we meet Aquila and his wife, Priscilla, is in Acts 18:1-3; they are forced from their home after the persecution of Claudius. Soon, however, they connect with Paul because of their…
Read MoreReport: God is at work everywhere!
Report: God is at work everywhere! We serve a God who works in mighty ways. Time, location, or circumstances do not bind our great God. In our service to Him, unbelief is the greatest hindrance to our Master. God’s eternal work, the work He is doing everywhere is advancing. The Spirit of God is at work in every place, convicting of “sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment” (John 16:8). Our responsibility is to be faithful in our part of God’s…
Read MoreTogo: A Gospel Opportunity!
Togo. What do you know about it? For most people, the answer would be, “not much.” Yet, in Togo, many faithful believers are laboring to see millions freed from the deep bondage and demonic darkness that holds them captive. It is a nation of deep poverty and great darkness, particularly in the villages and remote areas. Yet, the light of the gospel is still shining, transforming lives – as it always does. I recently heard of a new church (one…

Enjoying the Journey strives to provide helpful Bible study and devotional materials to believers seeking to study and apply the Bible. Over the years, we have developed several study guides both individually and to accompany the Enjoying the Journey Broadcasts. Many found our Miracles of Jesus Study Guide to be helpful.

Read MoreNew Companion Study Guide (with bonus content!)
One of the most profitable ways to study the Bible is by its characters. While we know that the main character of Scripture is God Himself, the Holy Spirit has chosen to use the lives of men and women, young and old, good and evil, to help us understand the application of truth to our own lives. Biography is a great teacher. The life of the Old Testament patriarch Joseph is one of the mountain peaks of the Word. In…
Read MoreWhy Study the Bible?
Whether a new believer or a mature Christian, it is absolutely essential that believers keep growing in their knowledge of God. This is only possible if we are day by day growing in our understanding of the Word. The Bible is God’s revelation of Himself. We come to know God by knowing His Word (Philippians 4:8-9). We learn to trust God by reading His Word (Romans 10:15; 15:4). We can obey God by obeying His Word (John 14:15). We are…
