Set Free from Self-Focus: A 6-Day Devotional

This article is part of the ESV.org Reading Plans series.

Live Abundantly

We all want to thrive and live comfortable, successful, satisfying lives. And the world offers no shortage of self-focused solutions aimed at securing them. But, what does it really mean to live abundantly in Christ?

In the introduction to Flourish: How the Love of Christ Sets Us Free from Self-Focus, Lydia Brownback says:

As we become biblically equipped to distinguish between self-love and Christ-love, our walk of faith will flourish, and we’ll find the abundant life Jesus promised.
