Scripture: 1 Peter 3:8-17
Lent is a season of reflection and contemplation that calls us to repentance, and to follow in the footsteps of Jesus as he goes to the cross. But lent doesn’t need to be a constant “downer,” where we focus on our failings. It can also be a time when we recognize the joys of belonging, the growth in knowledge and wisdom, the support of the community around us. It can be a time for knowing we need more, we want more, more Christ, more discipleship, more discipline.
This devotional series incorporates many of the themes in our Lent 2022 Worship Series Gathered Together. There is space for confession and repentance from sin. But there is also space for encouragement and moments of reconciliation and recommitment. Let us be honest with ourselves and with God. Through it all is the image of the Christ who comes not to condemn but to save.
