Lent & Easter

Make the most of your Passion Week and step into the footsteps of Jesus. In this Abide plan we meditate on the events between Psalm Sunday and Resurrection Sunday where we see how Jesus willingly went to the cross on our behalf.

A Passion Week Journey

We are often too busy and distracted to be spiritually prepared for the challenges we face in our week.  Why not start the day well and set time aside to be still and consider what the cross means for us. Strange Kingdom is a 10-minute meditation designed to help you feel ready and hopeful for the day ahead.

Over the next 46 days, adopt a simple rhythm of gratitude, as we acknowledge and reflect on the goodness of God. With a posture of gratitude, may you see the world with a new lens and delight in the beauty and blessings that are yours because of Jesus. 


An Attitude of Gratitude

Is Jesus really the Lord he claimed to be? In this thought-provoking two-week devotional, featuring insights from the modern classic More Than a Carpenter, you’ll read key arguments for faith from a skeptic turned believer. Josh McDowell set out to disprove the claims of Jesus Christ. But the evidence he found suggested exactly the opposite. So weigh the facts. Experience God’s love. And then watch what happens.

More Than a Carpenter

Welcome!

So why go on this journey?
Lent invites me to face that which I’d rather avoid. For 40 days I go on a journey dedicated to isolation, prayer, and fasting.

May this Lent journey be a confirmation of how God is always with me, give me the courage to go to places I would rather avoid, and let me experience his provision once more.

The Good of Giving Up  is an evangelical case for Lent and a guide to its practice.  This seven-day plan gives a brief history of Lent and shows how to observe Lent with proper motivation.  Whether you are Anglican or Baptist, Reformed or Pentecostal --  The Good of Giving Up  will encourage you to participate in what many know as a rich spiritual journey.

The Good of Giving Up

Sabbath rest is essential to our identity as God’s people: a gift to refresh us and equip us for good work. But many of us find it hard to do. This prayer journey will help you explore the reasons for restlessness, God’s gift of rest, and how your work – in your job, your home, or your street – can flow from that place of rest and connection with Him.

Working From Rest: A Prayer Journey

What does a suffering experience mean to you? How would you describe it in a few words? 

For Jesus it was a journey of suffering and death on the way to resurrection. For us as believers, suffering is a journey to know Him and experience the power of His resurrection by sharing in His suffering, and thus becoming equal to Him in His death.
