Presented above is a sample schedule, feel free to adjust it according to your preferences.
Watch Session 5 of Learn the Bible in 24hrs.
- Dedicate a specific time slot in your week to watch this session. It could be an evening or a part of your weekend. Ensure you're in a quiet environment to absorb the content fully.
Listen to 1 Corinthians on AudioBible.
- Listening to the scriptures can be done during times when your hands are busy but your mind is free—like during commuting, exercising, or even doing household chores.
Read Proverbs 1-7 (or join the MBK #JesusMen's bible study).
- Set aside a quiet time each day for this reading. Early mornings or late evenings can offer the peace needed for reflection. Joining the bible study can provide additional insights and community support.
Watch "The Chosen" series, episode 5, or catch up on missed ones.
- Plan a movie night for yourself or with family/friends dedicated to this series. It’s a good way to relax while still engaging with content that stimulates spiritual growth.
Read through the "Sermon Recaps" from the previous weeks.
- Use these recaps as a refresher or catch-up on sermons you've missed. It could be a part of your daily devotional time, helping to reinforce the messages heard during worship services.
Start reading our book of the month (10 pages per day).
- Breaking down the reading into daily, manageable chunks makes it less daunting and helps form a habit of daily reading. Choose a consistent time each day to read.
The overarching goal is gradual transformation through consistent engagement with spiritually enriching activities. By incorporating these elements into your daily and weekly routines, you aim to shift your lifestyle and mindset toward values and pursuits that are aligned with your faith. This journey encourages a deeper connection with God, a sense of community with fellow believers, and personal growth that transcends superficial worldly attractions, leading to a more fulfilled and purpose-driven life.

PRAYER TO CONSIDER THIS WEEK:
Heavenly Father,
You have called me to a life not shaped by the patterns of this world but transformed by the renewal of my mind. I come before You, seeking the guidance and power of Your Holy Spirit to work within me, leading me on this path of transformation. Help me, Abba, to set my heart and mind on things that are true, noble, just, and pure, embracing the virtues that draw me closer to You.
Grant me the strength and perseverance to pursue activities that matter, to aim at goals that reflect Your will, and to stand firm in the face of adversity. May Your Spirit instill in me a deep desire for personal and spiritual growth, guiding my decisions and actions toward what is good, acceptable, and perfect in Your eyes.
I thank You, Jesus, for Your unfailing love and for redeeming me. Your sacrifice has made it possible for me to be renewed in my mind, transformed in my life, and in good standing with the Father. May my life bear witness to Your grace and truth, and may I be a beacon of Your love in a world in need.
It is in Your mighty name, Jesus, Yeshua, my Redeemer, Lord, and Friend, that I pray, Amen.
*Feel free to modify this prayer your own version, aligning it with your heart, voice and understanding.

NOT SURE WHAT TO DO THIS WEEK? " In our quest for a life of deep meaning and impact, Romans 12:2 calls us to be different by renewing our minds, enabling us to discern and follow God's will. This journey involves choosing worthwhile goals, engaging in meaningful activities, and persevering regardless of challenges. By focusing on virtues such as truth, nobility, and purity, as encouraged in Philippians 4:8, and setting our minds on spiritual values as Colossians 3:2 suggests, we commit to a path of continuous growth. This process not only shapes our actions and decisions but also leads us towards a life aligned with God's purpose. #JesusMen let's embrace this transformative journey together, fostering a lifestyle and mindset that reflect our highest calling.
Romans 12:2 (ESV): "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Ephesians 4:23-24 (ESV): "And to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness." Philippians 4:8 (ESV): "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." Colossians 3:2 (ESV): "Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth." Galatians 6:8 (ESV): "For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life." Joshua 1:8 (ESV): "This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success."
