DOOR TO LIFE Staff Devotional Book
A ten week devotional book for camp staff (2021)
DOOR to LIFE
A door makes it possible to move from one spot to another space. If the door is closed, you’re trapped, stuck, without hope. But if the door is opened, everything on the other side is available to experience.
Loneliness can change to fellowship.
Fear can change to joy.
Condemnation can change to forgiveness.
Anxiety can change to peace.
Christianity teaches that Jesus is the door to the good life. Because of his life and death in the place of all who believe, his invitation is authentic and glorious.
This book is designed to help you love and follow Jesus more passionately each day. We hope you will experience his goodness and spread his good news this summer.
>>> 15 Minutes a Day
Each devotion is based on a Bible verse with additional Scripture readings and questions for those who want to go deeper.
>>> Written by Camp Directors
Here is a devotional book written by people who know camp ministry best, with topics relevant to all areas of camp life—for counselors, support staff, administrative staff, and directors.
>>> Every Weekend Sample
You will find a feature we call Expressions of Faith … a poem or prayer from Christian leaders like Augustine, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and George MacDonald, along with thoughtful application for staff.
>>> Week Eight Sample
You will get to focus on Ephesians 1, as each day the devotion works through the key verses of this chapter—perfect timing for a journey through the grace and power of salvation.
>>> Ten Weeks Worth
You can start at any time, and if your camp is shorter than ten weeks, you staff can continue using the devotional book when they go home.
