Lent & Easter

The events from Palm Sunday to Easter are sometimes referred to as Holy Week, and they make up the most important days in history. Join Passion for this 8-day reading plan as we chronologically journey with Jesus from his triumphant entrance into Jerusalem, the quietness of the Last Supper, the excruciating devastation of Good Friday, and the redemptive resurrection on Easter Sunday.

Holy Week

In Holy Week, we encounter a God who moves ever closer to us, even in our brokenness and shame. Yet what lies before us is a question: will we return to the Lord? This year, through repentance and renewal, let us be ready to greet the Lord at his Resurrection.

This plan is an excerpt from Dwell's Lenten devotional, "Return," available in its entirety within the Dwell Bible App.
