the Wake-Up Call...
Whether you are looking for a morning devotional or a shared study with others—even your whole church—the Wake-Up Call is for you.
In this series, J. D. takes us through Paul’s letter to the Ephesians and looks at how we can put life’s puzzles together… not by starting at the edge, but by putting Jesus at the center and moving out from there.
Wake-Up Call provides a daily encouragement to shake off the slumber of our busy lives and turn our eyes toward Jesus. Each morning our community gathers around a Scripture, a reflection, a prayer, and a few short questions, inviting us to reorient our lives around the love of Jesus who transforms our hearts, homes, churches, and cities.
