"God Is Faithful" for Monday, 23 April 2018 goTandem
The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure. (1 Corinthians 10:13)
What's the point of the first sentence in this passage?
When has God helped you endure?

"Future Stones" for Sunday, 22 April 2018
The people crossed the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month. Then they camped at Gilgal, just east of Jericho. It was there at Gilgal that Joshua piled up the twelve stones taken from the Jordan River.
Then Joshua said to the Israelites, "In the future your children will ask, 'What do these stones mean?' Then you can tell them, 'This is where the Israelites crossed the Jordan on dry ground.'" (Joshua 4:19-22)
Why is this kind of heritage important?
How does it help you in the present to remember what God has done for you in the past?

"Trials Lead to Faith" for Sunday, 22 April 2018
So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you have to endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold--though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. (1 Peter 1:6-7)
What is the value of a genuine faith, tested by fire?
What if your faith were never tested?
