Deep Rooted: Growing through the Book of Acts

By a bubbling stream of clear water grows a strong, healthy tree covered with rich, green leaves and bright, abundant fruit. Its deep roots ensure the tree will continue to grow, thrive, and produce fruit. The first chapter of the book of Psalms paints this beautiful word picture to illustrate a vital spiritual truth: When we pursue a committed, ongoing relationship with God and the living water of His Word, we will be like that vibrant, productive tree. Many Christians long for this, but either feel ill-equipped or need help and encouragement to develop a regular habit.

This devotional book is a tool to help you live out this spiritual principle. Like the rest of the Deep Rooted devotional series, it provides structure and guidance to help you get in, delight in, and apply God’s Word. Built around the 4-R Bible study method, the devotions will show you how to interact with and respond to Scripture, not simply read it. These meaty, daily devotions will increase your hunger for God’s Word, encourage spiritual growth and stability, and lay the groundwork for a life-long, spiritually-healthy habit.

This book breaks Acts into 50 readings. You will get the big picture of this Bible book in daily, doable chunks. Depending on how much you engage with the daily passage, each devotion will take you 15-20 minutes. In addition to a key verse and brief commentary or illustration, each devotion guides you to read, record, reflect, and respond.
