Lent begins tomorrow! In Christian History the six weeks of Lent was often used as a period of training before new believers would be baptized on Easter Sunday.
I hope that many of you
will choose one of the following new Bible studies for your iphone,
android, ipad or whatever, so that you can prepare for Easter using one
of the excellent devotional Bible studies below. Please also note
what looks to be a terrific series on the Bible at the end of the
options below.
Hoping for a Jesus directed Lenten
season for you and your family.
Pastor Jeff
People around the world will celebrate Jesus' resurrection on Sunday, March 31. In the weeks leading up to Easter, many individuals put intentional practices in place to focus on the nature and meaning of Christ's sacrifice. This year Lent begins on Wednesday, February 13.

Bringing the Bible to Life
As we study Jesus' life and his
