52-Week Plan

How can we grow closer in intimacy with our loved ones? How can we make sure we are tuned in to the relational needs of our spouse? How can we ensure our children feel loved and accepted, and our parents feel appreciated? How do we deal with loneliness in our own lives?

In the 52-week devotional plan from BIM, you’ll receive guidance about these questions – and many others you are likely to face in your marriage, family relationships, and friendships. This devotional plan will help you grow in intimacy with the people you love, while helping you remain rooted in God’s Word in all your relationships.
