Summary

In this week of First15 devotionals, we’re going to explore what it means to live with an unveiled lifestyle. It’s when we live our lives in light of the perfect sacrifice of Jesus that you and I begin to experience all his death was purposed to bring us. God longs for his children to walk in intimacy with him, directly connected to his wellspring of love for us. May you experience a more tangible, loving, and powerful connection with your heavenly Father this week as we celebrate living life unveiled.

Our Scripture for today comes from Leviticus 21:23, and today's worship is Holy is Our God by Austin Stone Worship.

Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out?

Something needs to change!

So, we’re launching the First15 Digital Retreat to help address the challenges we face in connecting with God in this frenetic cultural moment.

When we look to Jesus, we see this exciting, life-giving invitation:

“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest.” –Matthew 11:28 MSG

Through the First15 Digital Retreat, you will make space to come, rest, and recover.

Join us and speakers like Craig Denison, Aaron Niequist, Strahan Coleman, Charaia Callabrass, Ashley Abercrombie, and several more, as well like worship by First15 Worship artists like Nikki Moltz and Rachel Denison.

Scripture says,

But he shall not go through the veil or approach the altar because he has a blemish,

Our Heavenly Father is both entirely full of love and completely holy.
