Doubt isn't always intellectual; often, it's emotional. Can we trust that God is good? Does he have a plan for us? Joseph was a person who had every reason to doubt God's plan, but he trusted God all the way. We can learn to trust God in seasons of doubt by looking at his life.

The first temptation reveals the very nature of all temptation: can we take God at his word? When Adam and Eve sinned, they made an exchange, God's word for theirs. Tempted by the enemy, they doubted God's Word and his goodness. Like them, we are tempted to do the same. For this very reason, Jesus was tempted and showed us the way to remain faithful in seasons of doubt.

Doubt and faith are not opposites. Through the Bible, God meets his people in their doubts and invites them to draw closer to him. In this story of a father who comes to Jesus, doubt is a gateway for a deeper understanding of Jesus. His prayer is a pattern for us when we have questions; "I believe; help my unbelief!"

Are we living in a post-Christian world or a pre-revival world? Throughout history, God's pattern has been to revive his church and awaken his people. In the story of Nehemiah, we see the pattern of revival among God's people and we look ahead to our own day and long for God to revive us again.

Above all, more than anything else, Jesus prays for unity. In fact, he prays that it would be the way that all people would know his disciples - by their unity. Studying this part of the prayer, we learn how to be unified in the church and how to showcase the amazing love of God for his people.

The disciples were not a star-studded bunch. They were slow to grasp what Jesus taught, and scattered in the hour of need, but Jesus never gave up on them. He spent some of his last hours on earth praying for them, asking God to finish the work he started. Of all the things they needed, Jesus thought they needed a little bit more prayer. Jesus prays the same things for us today, and we can be encouraged by what Jesus asked for them because he will do the same for us.

Jesus's prayer in John 17 is the greatest prayer in the Bible. What can we learn from it? Starting with the opening line, we learn to pray two prayers perfect for any situation: glorify your name and help me know you.

In the gospels, Jesus is often praying but we seldom get to hear what he says. But on the night before his crucifixion, John records Jesus's longest prayer in the Bible. What did he pray that night? What can we learn about prayer from listening in? In this study of John 17, we learn from Jesus's prayer in his final hours on earth.

The final message of Revelation is simple: Jesus is coming soon. Will you be ready? All of the Bible showcases the neverending love of God, and the final chapter gives us the encouragement we need to be ready when Jesus returns.

In the final vision of Revelation, we see the end goal of all things. Jesus is making all things new. He will right every wrong, wipe every tear, and bring us into the perfectly heavenly kingdom of the Father. All suffering and death will pass away and heaven and earth will be one in the New Jerusalem.
