About this Plan

Lent: Embracing Your Need for God

Lent is a 40-day season leading up to Jesus' death and resurrection. Traditionally, Christians use this time to fast, pray, and give to those in need. It's a time to reflect on our need for God and prepare our hearts for the magnitude of Easter. Use this Lent Devotional to guide you through this sacred season with intentionality.
