The Lent Project is an initiative of Biola University's Center for Christianity, Culture and the Arts. Each daily devotion includes a portion of Scripture, a devotional, a prayer, a work of visual art or a video, a piece of music, and a poem plus brief commentaries on the artworks and artists. The Seven Last Words of Christ refers to the seven short phrases uttered by Jesus on the cross, as gathered from the four Christian gospels. This devotional project connects word, image, voice and song into daily meditations on these words.

This Easter, we are looking at everything Jesus said on the cross leading up to His last words. What do they tell us about who He is and what He did for us?

Many men struggle with their feelings. Over these seven days, we explore the emotional life of Jesus, learning that we can bring all our emotions to Him because He can sympathize with us. We don’t have to try to deal with them alone; we can find fellowship when we bring them all to the Friend who’s closer than a brother (John 15:15). Written by Lewis Lau.

After being mocked and tortured on the cross, Jesus spoke his final words and took his last breath, fulfilling the purpose and promise of His Father. These final words continue to live on. But why do the matter? How does it affect your everyday life? This Easter, journey through each of Jesus' seven statements spoken from the cross and meditate on what they reveal about who our Savior is—who died and uttered His last words specifically for you.

This 7-day plan will guide you through the week Jesus came into Jerusalem, confronted the religious leaders, celebrated the last supper, was crucified, died, and was buried. It’s the week Jesus brought salvation to the world. It’s called Holy Week. Experience what Jesus accomplished and prepare for his resurrection victory!

Arrested in that garden, Jesus endured two sham trials and the most unjust verdict in all history. The Creator of the cosmos, crucified by His creatures on a hill outside Jerusalem. From that awful site, Christ would speak His “last seven words.” You’ll find reflections on each of these seven words in the following pages. As you read these devotional articles, we pray that you’ll ponder their significance and gain encouragement from the promise of the hope that blooms eternally.

This week, we will explore various perspectives on Passion Week through familiar stories found in Mark’s Gospel. Jesus knew His time on earth was ending, so what were His priorities in His final week, knowing He was destined to die? Seeing the things Jesus focused on will help us see what He is most passionate about. Written by Dean Brenton.

Are you confused? Lost? Anxious? The story of Easter is filled with the clarifying hope of Jesus. When we don't know where to turn, Jesus is our guide. This plan concentrates on how Jesus held onto the Father through his death and resurrection. We, too, can cling to the hope of God during confusing times.

Over these 7 days, we are going to focus on the seven sayings of Jesus.  We want to go to the cross and we want to draw some principles, some disciplines, and some habits that we can begin to implement in our lives to help us grow stronger in our walk with the Lord. We want to zoom into these sayings and pay attention to the words not of a dying man but of our Lord and Saviour.  Join us on this journey together as we approach Resurrection Sunday 2025.
