Whether you’re new to observing Lent or looking to engage with fresh perspective, these weekly reflections will help you lean in, listen, and respond to what God is doing in your life.
Lent is a time of preparation. A time to turn our attention toward Christ’s journey to the cross and the hope that follows. Whether you’re giving something up or adding something new, this series will help you engage with the season in a meaningful way.
A deeper understanding of Lent’s meaning and significance.
Weekly reflections to guide your personal journey.
Encouragement to embrace seasons of waiting, wilderness, and renewal.
So often in Lent, we consider what to give up. But what if we added something this year? Consider adding daily or weekly reflection time to be still and to consider all that Jesus experienced in his journey to the cross. In this episode, let’s consider Ash Wednesday, the first of 40 days leading up to Easter.
Ashes to Beauty
Release Date: March 10
On the first Monday of Lent, we’re invited to consider a powerful Biblical image: ashes and beauty. What ashes are you holding onto in your life? How might Jesus’ redemption make them beautiful?
Wilderness to Worship
Release Date: March 17
Our current culture avoids wilderness seasons at all costs. But there’s much to learn, even in seasons of silence and isolation. What might God be trying to say?
Sorrow to Surrender
Release Date: March 24
While in the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus wrestled in prayer about what was to come. Ultimately, God the Father didn’t take the suffering away from Jesus, but he did give him the strength to endure it.
Weeping to Wonder
Release Date: March 31
By the time Jesus arrives to see Lazarus, it’s already too late. He had died, and all hope, it seemed, was lost. And yet, Jesus’ glory triumphs over death. It wasn’t too late– it just wasn’t His timing.
Cross to Crown
Release Date: April 7
During the final week of Lent, we’re reminded of this ultimate truth: it was Jesus’ humility and sacrifice that brought about glory and victory. Where do we resist humility in our own lives?
