The Cultivating Series
We were made for more than belief—we were made for God. In a world that disciples us into distraction, striving, and self-construction, The Cultivating Series is a gentle, Spirit-filled invitation to come back to the One who calls us by name. With biblical depth and pastoral warmth, these daily devotionals guide readers into a life of deeper encounter, richer intimacy, and joyful surrender to Christ.
Each page is shaped by the gospel’s liberating power: we are not defined by what we do, but by what He has done. And yet, in that security, we are invited into transformation. We learn to hear His voice, abide in His presence, discover who we truly are in Him, and walk in the freedom that comes not from self-expression, but from Spirit-led surrender.
This is not a call to do more. It is a call to open your life to the God who already gave you His.
Freedom is at the heart of the gospel—a gift offered to us in Christ, yet often misunderstood or left untapped in our daily lives. Cultivating a Life of Freedom is a 15-day devotional journey designed to help you experience the fullness of the freedom Jesus has purchased for you. This is not a quick fix or a set of simple answers, but an invitation to explore the depths of God’s promises and their transforming power in every area of your life.
Through Scripture, reflection, worship, and prayer, you will uncover what it means to walk in freedom from sin, fear, striving, and self-reliance. But this journey is not just about what we are freed from—it is about the life we are freed for: intimacy with God, loving others, and living with purpose in light of eternity.
What You’ll Discover in This Devotional:
Freedom Purchased at the Cross— Reflect on the cost of your freedom and the incredible love of Christ.
Freedom from Sin’s Dominion— Learn to walk in the Spirit, empowered to overcome sin’s grip.
Freedom Through Surrender— Find rest in yielding control to Jesus, trusting in His sovereignty.
Freedom to Love and Serve Others— Discover how true freedom enables sacrificial love and service.

Each day invites you to engage with a key passage, guided reflection, worship through song, and listening prayer. This devotional is not about arriving at a place of perfect surrender but about taking one step closer to the One who sets us free.
If you long to experience the joy, peace, and transformation that come from living in the freedom Christ offers, this devotional will help you cultivate that freedom as a daily reality. You don’t have to strive for it—it’s already yours. Come and taste the sweetness of living free in Him.
Surrender—it’s a word that evokes both hope and hesitation. In Cultivating a Life of Surrender, this 15-day devotional invites you to step into the beauty of releasing control and entrusting every part of your life to God. Through Scripture, reflection, worship, and prayer, you’ll explore what it means to surrender not as a loss but as an act of trust in the One who loves you perfectly.
Each devotional is a guide for the journey—helping you uncover the idols that divide your heart, release the anxieties that weigh you down, and discover the peace, joy, and freedom found in a life fully yielded to Christ. With honesty and humility, this devotional acknowledges that surrender is not a destination but a daily process—a journey of learning to echo Jesus’ words: “Not my will, but Yours be done.”
Rooted in the promises of Scripture, this devotional will lead you to:
Lay your fears, plans, and anxieties at the feet of Jesus.
Trust the Shepherd’s care and follow His lead.

Through this journey, you’ll be reminded that surrender is not about what you lose—it’s about who you gain.
Intimacy with God is not a destination but a journey—a daily invitation to walk closer with your Creator, who knows you fully and loves you unconditionally.

At the heart of every person lies the question, Who am I? In a culture that urges us to construct identity through achievement, performance, or self-expression, the gospel offers a radically different answer: identity is not achieved but received. Cultivating Identity is a 30-day devotional that walks us into the depths of that truth—both the unchanging identity we share as believers in Christ, and the unique callings God gives each of us by name.
This journey begins with what is true for every Christian: we are new creations, beloved children, co-heirs with Christ, temples of the Spirit, and more. These aren’t aspirational titles—they’re realities rooted in Christ’s finished work. And yet, the gospel doesn’t flatten us into sameness. It also invites us to discover the particular name, gifts, and purpose God has given each of us through the Spirit, for the sake of His Kingdom.
Grounded in Scripture and deeply relational in tone, this devotional invites readers to stop striving for identity and instead receive it in communion with God. Each reflection leads to worship, prayer, and listening—making space not just for information, but for transformation. It’s a call to know who you are by first knowing whose you are.
This is identity rooted in grace, shaped in intimacy, and lived out in freedom.
At the core of spiritual maturity lies a forgotten treasure: the fear of the Lord. In Cultivating Awe, readers are invited into a 15-day devotional journey that reclaims holy fear—not as dread or distance, but as the soul-awakening reverence that opens the door to deeper intimacy with God.
Rooted in Scripture and rich with gospel truth, this journey dismantles the caricatures of fear shaped by shame or legalism and recovers a biblical awe that is tender, life-giving, and transformational. Drawing from scenes like Isaiah’s vision in the temple and the trembling of John before the risen Christ, this devotional shows that fear and love are not enemies, but partners. We fear God because we have seen His mercy. We tremble at His Word not out of guilt, but wonder. We stand in awe not to earn closeness, but because we've been drawn close.
Each day weaves together theological reflection, prayerful surrender, and worship, moving through themes like holiness, nearness, wisdom, obedience, trust, freedom, and eternity. In the process, the reader is not merely informed, but invited—into a posture of the heart that sees God as He is and is forever changed.
Cultivating Awe is a call to reorient our hearts toward the blazing center of Christian worship: the God who is a consuming fire and yet draws near in grace. It’s for the believer who longs not just to know God’s truth, but to be undone by His beauty. This is reverence that leads to joy, trembling that leads to peace, and fear perfected by love.
Cultivating Encounter is a 15-day devotional journey that invites readers to rediscover the God who speaks, draws near, and transforms us by His presence. With biblical clarity, experiential richness, and a Spirit-led warmth, this book calls believers beyond routine religion into a lived, daily intimacy with the Living God.
Each devotional explores a different pathway of encounter: through creation, dreams, Scripture, worship, community, service, prayer, repentance, the cross, the Holy Spirit, and ultimately, the glory of eternity. These are not abstract meditations, but invitations—to behold God’s beauty, hear His whisper, and respond to His call in the depths of everyday life.
With the theological grounding of gospel grace and the expectancy of a Spirit-filled life, Cultivating Encounter beckons readers to make space for God, to listen with the heart, and to be changed. It reminds us that encounter is not reserved for the spiritually elite—it is the very heartbeat of the gospel. Christ has opened the way. The Spirit still speaks. The Father still calls.
The invitation stands: seek Him with all your heart—and live a life marked by His presence.
