Lent & Easter
More Than a Carpenter
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.

Last Words: A Lenten Meditation on the Final Sayings of Christ, Week 2
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.
The Masterpiece of Motherhood
What does the word motherhood encompass? Joy, pain, frustration, love, exhaustion, regret, pride, identity, sacrifice, purpose, loss, intimacy, anxiety, blessing, grief, and more. It is rarely what we expect. In our fallen world, Eve's curse impacts even the intended beauty of being a mom. And yet, the victory of Easter morning brings a special gift of hope to mothers. Let's explore the redemption of God's original masterpiece of motherhood.
