Lent 2021

No Greater Love

We meditate on the traditional fourteen moments along the way of the cross. This is not a trip with milestones, rushing to a destination. This is a pilgrimage into the heart of God, an invitation into personal communion with Jesus. We walk with Jesus so we can see how he walks with us. We conclude, not with a meditation on the resurrection, but a meditation on mission. We encourage you to pick one station – whichever one catches your attention or captures your heart – and meditate on it. That place – be it the judgement of others, falling a second time, or suffering at the hands of others – maybe exactly where the Lord wants to accompany you today. May your meditations on the way of the cross be a blessing for your missionary spirit and for all those you serve.
