Walking Together Through Lent: Our Daily Lenten Devotionals
Many voices. One journey.
Each year during Lent, our church creates a daily devotional rooted in Scripture and shaped by the voices of our community. These devotionals are shared as a printed booklet for those who prefer a physical copy and sent by email each day throughout the Lenten season.
This year, our devotional also gently invites readers to grow in confidence with the Bible. Alongside each day’s reflection, you’ll find brief context notes, simple Bible skill tips, and a daily practice—designed to help readers engage Scripture with curiosity, not pressure.
We invite members of our church to contribute by reflecting on a provided scripture.
Contributors are asked to include:
-
a short personal reflection
-
a reflection question
-
a brief prayer
-
a simple faith-in-action suggestion
There is no “right” way to write a devotional. You do not need to be a Bible expert. These reflections are personal, prayerful responses to Scripture—shared as part of our collective Lenten journey.
Reflections will be compiled into a printed devotional and also shared as a daily email throughout Lent, offering encouragement, reflection, and practice day by day.
