Putting Jesus First

Sarah YoungAugust 22, 2017

Sold by Thomas Nelson

In Putting Jesus First, the eighth study in the Jesus Calling Bible Study Series, you will explore what it means to place Christ first in every part of your life–and rely on Him in the busy times, anxious times, uncertain times, and lonely times. While the world offers many distractions and priorities for you to chase, the Bible is clear that peace and fulfillment only come as you put God's agenda first at all times. As Jesus promised, "Seek first [God's] kingdom . . . and all these things will be given to you as well" (Matthew 6:33).

Each of the Jesus Calling Bible studies includes devotional readings from Jesus Calling, selected passages of Scripture for reflection, Bible study questions, and additional questions to help you apply the material. This study can be used for personal reflection and Bible study or in a small-group setting.

Jesus Calling: Enjoying Peace in His Presence

Sarah Young

After many years of writing her own words in her prayer journal, missionary Sarah Young decided to be more attentive to the Savior's voice and begin listening for what He was saying. So with pen in hand, she embarked on a journey that forever changed her—and many others around the world.

In these powerful pages are the words and Scriptures Jesus lovingly laid on her heart. Words of reassurance, comfort, and hope. Words that have made her increasingly aware of His presence and allowed her to enjoy His peace.

Jesus is calling out to you in the same way. Maybe you share the author’s need for a great sense of “God with you”. Or perhaps Jesus seems distant without you knowing why. Or maybe you have wandered farther from Him that you ever imagined you would. Here is a year’s worth of daily readings from Young’s journals to bring you closer to Christ and move your time with Him from monologue to a dialogue.

Each day is written as if Jesus Himself were speaking to you. Because He is. Do you hear Him calling?
