A Community of Love and Forgiveness

Check out this 31-day devotional series from The Florida Conference. Dr. Jon, Bill Walker, and other church members took part in writing these devotions for our community!


We invite the people of the Florida Annual Conference to a journey of living more deeply into this baptismal vow:
“Do you confess Jesus Christ as your savior, put your whole trust in his grace, and promise to serve him as your Lord, in union with the church which Christ has opened to people of all ages, nations, and races?”
Each of the underlined words comprise the weekly themes of this 31-day journey, and constitute a person’s overall journey toward full discipleship and spiritual maturity. A diverse set of lay and clergy authors from around the Conference will reflect on these themes and the daily scriptures. Taken together, these daily devotionals move us toward a deeper commitment to Jesus, and an exciting vision of a church whose future is open to all people.
