Lent & Easter

Two questions we have to wrestle with: 1. What does Easter mean? And 2.  Why does it matter?  How is it that after thousands of years many around the world will be so impacted by Easter this year?  Many people say, "I believe in Jesus' resurrection, I just don't understand it."  This study will help you understand what Jesus' resurrection means for you and for the world.

What Difference Does Easter Make?

Whether it’s your favorite movie, book, or reality show, you know there's nothing like a good plot twist! A plot twist can make us rethink everything we thought we knew about the story. In this 30-day devotional series from Grow Curriculum, designed for Lent we’ll focus on how Jesus experienced “life-plot twists” and how he is with us when we go through unexpected moments in our life.

40 Days With the Risen Lord

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

Jesus “took the bread, blessed it, broke it, gave it to his disciples, and said, ‘This is my body given for you, do this in remembrance of me.’” In the same way, we too are taken, blessed, broken, given, and spoken in God’s love—that we might remember the body of Christ for a hurting world and become instruments of peace. Welcome to the Jesus Meal.

Jesus Christ rose from the dead bodily. The Old Testament predicted He would. Jesus himself repeatedly said he would die and resurrect. The apostles and all of Scripture proclaim it to be true. The apostles and His followers over the centuries have died, steadfastly believing this. You don't die for something you're not sure about. 15 key references with “Man Says” But “God Says” preceding each Bible verse.

Resurrection of Jesus Christ

Night is a special time of day. Not it's active part, but the time when we move from all our meetings, conversations, and business – to sleep. There were some special nights in the lives of Jesus' disciples. A few nights before Christ’s Resurrection. Let’s take a look at them.


Night Before DAWN

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.
