Overview

Strive less, trust more. While it may sound simple, the book of Isaiah teaches us the life-changing truth that following God isn't about our own effort; it's about trusting God. Period. Maybe you even know this on some level, but do you live like you really believe it? Isaiah served as God's mouthpiece to the nation of Judah but also to the surrounding nations. His message echoes into our lives today as we read his call to rely on the Lord. Using the genres of poetry, narrative, and prophecy, Isaiah communicated clearly that followers of God could trust in Him. As you study the chapters Isaiah wrote--from his challenging words to the nation of Israel to his prophecies of the Messiah to come--learn to rest in God's promises and grow in trust. Unpacking Isaiah's words will reveal that you can trust God more than your own human effort or the counterfeits the world suggests. You won't be striving harder, but instead trusting more deeply the Faithful One who is so worthy of our utter dependence. In Him you'll find the comfort and peace you need to sustain you. In this 7-session study, author Melissa Spoelstra encourages you to let go of striving and learn to trust God's character, His comfort, and even His correction. As you study the book of Isaiah, you'll see again and again that trust is the heartbeat of your relationship with God.
