Moving onto the Next Thing
by Jennifer Greene-Sullivan
I am so excited to share a sneak peek of the upcoming Seeking Jesus Everyday devotional designed specifically for teen boys! 💙
This 30-day journey is all about encouraging young men to grow in their faith, make wise decisions, and embrace their God-given identity as leaders, friends, and sons of the Father. Each day is packed with Scripture, real-life applications, and reflections tailored to the unique challenges boys face in today’s world.
💬 A Sneak Peek Inside:
Here’s a glimpse into one of the devotionals:
Day 5: “Strength in the Struggle”
Scripture Focus: Philippians 4:13 — “I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.”
Devotional Thought:
Life isn’t always easy. Whether it’s standing up for what’s right, working hard at school, or making tough choices, the struggle is real. But God doesn’t leave us to face these challenges alone. He’s your source of strength, courage, and determination. No matter how big the obstacle, God is bigger. Trust Him to carry you through the tough days, and know that His strength never runs out—even when yours does.
Challenge for the Day:
What’s one struggle you’re facing right now? Take 5 minutes to pray and ask God for strength to face it. Then write down one way you can lean on Him to tackle it head-on.
💙 The Layout of the Devotional
Seeking Jesus Everyday is designed to help teen boys focus on a specific spiritual theme each week, with intentional prayers, reflections, and scripture verses to guide their journey.

Each day includes:
- Scripture Focus: A verse or passage to meditate on and apply.
- Devotional Thought: Practical reflections on the theme of the day.
- Challenge/Action Step: A way to live out the lesson in daily life.
- Closing Prayer: A short prayer to connect with God and surrender the day to Him.
Why a Boys’ Edition?
I’ve heard from so many parents and youth leaders asking for a devotional tailored to young men, and this project has been on my heart for a long time. Boys need a resource that speaks to their struggles, encourages their growth, and reminds them of their unique role in God’s Kingdom.
What’s Next?
We’re in the final stages of editing and revising, and I can’t wait for the release! Stay tuned for updates and more sneak peeks as we get closer.
Join the Journey:
Are you or someone you know excited about this devotional? I’d love to hear your thoughts and prayers as we prepare to share it with the world. Let’s raise up a generation of boys who are rooted in their faith and confident in their identity as children of God.
Thank you for your continued support—it means the world to me! 🙏💙
