This week, I am really looking forward to the start of our annual Lenten Soup and Study taking place over the next five Wednesday evenings. Each week, we will enjoy some delicious soup and desserts at 5:30 PM and then spend time feasting on God’s word together until 7:00 PM.
During the sessions, we will use our Bibles and draw insights from a daily devotional book by Taylor Mills. His devotions will guide us through a series of heart-sharping lessons for Lent. During our time together, we will explore the qualities and characteristics of Christian discipleship that lead us to claim Jesus as our highest priority. Below is an outline of the topics we will cover each week. If you want to read Toward the Cross along with us during Lent, you can purchase a book at any online retailer.
Chapter 1- A Humble Heart- 2/21/24
Chapter 2- A Committed Heart- 2/28/24
Chapter 3- A Gracious Heart- 3/6/24
Chapter 4- A Heart for Seekers-3/13/24
Chapters 5 and 6- A Purposeful Heart and A Heart of Extravagant Love- 3/20/24
Chapter 7- A Joyful Heart- Easter (On your own)
My prayer for us during Lent is that God will mold and shape our hearts, our minds, and our spirits as we seek to follow Jesus who is the way, the truth, and the life!
