Make the week yours

The times are suggestions. Read the passage in your own Bible before choosing the action. Adapt or skip any activity that does not fit.

The calendar contains seven all-day entries with no alerts. Import only if you want them; importing twice may duplicate entries. This tool sends no dates or answers to us. Blogger may use its own cookies.

DAY 1

Notice

Read Mark 10:42–45

Name one ordinary task that would make someone else's day easier.

Afterwards: what did you notice?

DAY 2

Listen

Read Philippians 2:1–4

Ask someone what would be useful today; listen without planning your answer.

Afterwards: what did you notice?

DAY 3

Encourage

Read 1 Thessalonians 5:11

Write a specific thank-you for something a person actually did.

DAY 6

Show up

Read Colossians 3:12–17

Pick a small commitment you can keep before today ends.

Afterwards: what did you notice?

DAY 7

Reflect

Read Matthew 6:1–4

Write privately: what helped, what felt performative, and what should continue?

Afterwards: what did you notice?

Run this with a men's group or a friend

Open with a ten-minute conversation: read one passage in context, give each person space to name a manageable action, and agree on an optional check-in next week.

At the check-in ask: What did you notice? What was genuinely useful? What would you change? People may pass. Avoid collecting names, prayer requests, photographs or stories about someone else's need.

This is an invitation to practise, not a competition. Never make help conditional on participation, sharing a story or installing an app.

How to Restart an Unfinished Task: A Five-Line Note

To restart an unfinished task, write down the exact stopping point, one visible next action, and anything that must be ready before you begin. A note such as “finish report” names the destination. “Open the draft and add the missing date to the second paragraph” gives you a place to start. Publisher disclosure: this guide comes from the publisher of Now: ADHD Task Starter. The worksheet below works on paper or in an ordinary notes app; using our app is optional. A five-line restart note Before closing a task, copy these five lines and fill them with concrete details: I stopped at: the file, page, room, or physical step you reached. My next action is: one thing you can see yourself doing. I need: the material or information required for that action. I am waiting for: a specific answer or item, if anything. I will look at this again: a realistic cue, such as after breakfast or when the reply arrives. Keep it brief. The note is useful only if writing it takes less effort than recons...

A few specific details will give your future self something to recognize. This guide includes a copyable template, an example, and a short checklist for keeping the letter accessible. You can use paper, a notes app, or a future-letter app. Choose the opening date before you write Choose a date that matches the question you want to revisit.

How to Set Subscription Renewal Reminders Before the Next Charge

A good renewal reminder arrives early enough to make a decision, usually a few days to a week before a subscription or trial renews. Set one for every recurring charge, especially free trials and yearly plans, and decide in advance whether you will keep or cancel. Here is a simple system for reviewing charges before renewal. Reminders help you remember; they do not cancel a plan or guarantee that you avoid a charge. Publisher disclosure: We publish MoneyShield: Sub Tracker. You can use this checklist with a calendar or paper; the app is optional. Find every recurring charge first You cannot remind yourself about charges you have forgotten. Spend 20 minutes building a full list. Scroll through two or three months of bank and card statements. On iPhone, check Settings, then your name, then Subscriptions for anything billed through Apple. Search your email for words like "receipt," "renewal," "trial" and "subscription." Don't forget ...
