Welcome to the series on Lent. Today is Ash Wednesday and the start of the 40 days of Lent culminating with Easter Sunday. Come walk with us as we look at how we can prepare ourselves for this holy time. We will start with what some of us remember of childhood Easter time - giving something up. What does that mean for us today?

Discerning Life
Join as I enter Holy Week and look at a Discerning Life and a preference for God. How do we do that and what does a “preference for God” mean? Listen as I share what I have learned from the book titled “A Discerning Life” and begin to notice where God might be encouraging you look, notice, and connect with God.
Ponderings:
Looking back on this Lent, how has it been different than other years?
Can you notice where God was trying to grab your attention today?
Is your life too busy or time so budgeted you don’t get time to feel the Spirit’s presence in everyday activities?
What does “savor the sorrow” mean to you?

Lent Week 1 2022
Many songs have been written about the cross of Christ. How can we sit with a song and take a moment to accept the emotions of the words? How can life, death, and resurrection mingle together? Reflecting on the death of her father, Flannery O’Connor wrote in her journal, “The reality of death has come upon us and a consciousness of the power of God has broken our complacency like a bullet in the side. The cross brings up many visual images for us. I wonder what you see when you visualize the cross.
Ponderings:
What do you see when you think about the cross of Christ?
When you listened to the song ”When I Survey the Wonderous Cross” what did you notice?
I wonder how Jesus would respond to me if I sang this song to him.
What can I pick up from today’s chat to carry with me this Lenten season?
