The Crosswalk Devotional: A Daily Devotional Christian Podcast

Are our relationships meaningful? Don’t be too quick to answer. If our relationships are meaningful, why do we bestow the label of friend upon people who aren’t close to us? Why do we even have superficial conversations at church, a place where we are called to be vulnerable? - Aaron D'Anthony Brown SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/...

Making good choices, unfortunately, doesn’t come naturally. It takes effort to steer our hearts toward what is good and right in the world. “Submit to one another,” Paul encouraged the Ephesians. But first, we must submit our lives to the One who created us. - Meg Bucher SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Daily Bible Verse:  http...

God longs for us to set aside time in our lives to sit with Him and listen to His voice. He understands that life can become overwhelming with multiple things clamoring for our attention. It takes intentionality to shut off the noise to spend time with our creator. These are precious moments where He can meet us right where you are. - Heidi Vegh SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:...

Our bodies are the most tangible forms of ourselves. We also are made up of a heart that feels, a soul that connects with our spiritual selves, and a mind that helps us reason. Our bodies are what we see, feel, hear, and process this world with. It is flesh that God formed from dust and breathed life into. Our bodies are profoundly significant. - Amanda Idleman SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Yo...

Jesus consistently showed His disciples, and left an example for us today, of what it means to live in service of others and not just to be served. When we are welcomed in the name of Jesus and welcome others in the name of Jesus, we are living and loving the way He was instructing the disciples after He washed His feet. - Meg Bucher SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://ww...

One of the greatest ways in which the enemy works is to get us to be silent. If we are quiet in our faith, struggles, and lives, the Lord cannot use us. This is certainly not to say if someone is mute that, God cannot use them, for there are many ways to communicate the gospel. - Emma Danzey SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Dai...

God wants us to love each other in the same way that He loves – unconditionally. In fact, God wants us to love in such a way that the people around us will know we are fully devoted followers of Christ. I wonder what our relationships would look like if we did love the way Jesus loves us. - Mary Southerland SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-...

Life can feel akin to being strapped into a rollercoaster going 90MPH, with no way to call for help or stop the ride if something goes wrong. In those moments, we call out to our God, who is faithful to save us. - Meg Bucher SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Daily Bible Verse:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-bible-verse/ D...

Remember that this life is a race today, especially if you're currently running the most challenging mile and feel unsure if you can keep going. Maybe you're not sprinting on this stretch like the people around you. That's okay, stay focused on Christ and keep putting one foot in front of the other. We can trust that as we make choices to sacrifice and persevere, our character and endurance have t...

Have you ever covered your eyes to avoid a scary part of a movie? In the same way, we sometimes deliberately close our eyes to the inconvenient or painful realities that God reveals. Is there any spiritual reality you resist? Perhaps God is nudging you to see and respond to a difficult relationship with His compassion instead of censure. - Annie Yorty SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily P...

God saves us, and then God calls us to follow him. He calls us to be imitators of Christ and walk in his ways (Ephesians 5). To do so avoids the inevitability of crushing consequences of disobedience and leads to a life of joy. - Dr. Michael A. Milton SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Daily Bible Verse:  https://www.lifeaudio.co...

Copy-cat isn’t usually a kind term, but the reality of a copy-cat is complimentary. In this world, we have leaders and followers. We are all called to lead others to Christ Jesus as part of the Great Commission, but to do so, we follow in the footsteps of the Lord. We are literally called to be Christ Jesus copy-cats. - Meg Bucher SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.l...

Let us as a church choose to be different today. May we each stand firmly, soberly, and righteously against temptation. - Aaron D'Anthony Brown SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Daily Bible Verse:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-bible-verse/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising op...

What happens when we don’t feel like giving thanks, especially during times of rising fuel prices, increasing mortgage rates, food shortages, job losses, and more? Amid unstable times, God asks us to focus on Him and His faithfulness, instead of our circumstances. - Lynette Kittle SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Daily Bible Ve...

As Christ-followers, it is vital that we are always prepared to share the hope that we have in Christ. This means that we are well equipped with knowing our God and His Word. By spending time with Him in prayer and in Scripture daily, we are strengthening our own faith and confidence in our relationship with Him and then able to communicate more effectively the hope that we have in Jesus. - Emma D...

Sometimes the most profound experiences of God’s presence occur within the ordinary places of over lives. God comes amid the regular and routine, catching us unawares. This is no truer than in the story of Jacob. One of the high points of his life with God is when he dreams of a ladder upon which the angels of God ascend and descend. Rising from his dream Jacob exults the presence of the Lord sayi...

Careless and complacent words may seem irrelevant, but our words matter to God, to others, and even to ourselves. Instead of spoilage, we have the choice to speak with healthy and delicious words that leave behind the aroma of Christ every single day. And when we do, we will not only speak life into others but ourselves too. - Megan Evans SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https...

God knew the moment Adam ate the fruit, sin would enter the world, and nothing would ever be the same again. For this reason, it is crucial to understand the impact of sin and how it can impact your walk with the Lord. - Clarence L. Haynes Jr. SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Daily Bible Verse:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-d...

Comparison leads to feelings of jealousy, discontentment, and ungratefulness. It can hold such a tight grip on our hearts that it ultimately shapes everything we do. - Laura Bailey SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Daily Bible Verse:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-bible-verse/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio...

Has chatter of possible future food shortages caused you to feel anxious, stressed out, and worried? Are headlines causing you to store up staples, basic supplies, and favorite foods to help get you and your family through possible lean times? If so, it’s okay to create a storehouse but make sure it isn’t motivated by fear but led by God’s wisdom because “The Lord does not let the righteous go hun...

How does thinking about Jesus’ sacrifice on a tree put you in awe of God’s redemptive plan from the Garden of Eden? In what ways is God calling you to die to your sin and live for Him? How can you celebrate the eternal healing that Jesus has given you by His wounds? - Emma Danzey SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/ Your Daily Bible Ver...

No walk matches the pathos and power of that footpath from Pilate’s kangaroo court to Golgotha. The Via Delarosa—the way of the cross—is the ultimate walk of love. This is the love we are to imitate: dying to self to live for God, and in doing so, knowing the fullness of joy in Christ. - Dr. Michael A. Milton SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts: Your Daily Prayer:  https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-dail...
