Jesus resisted the temptations of the devil. What are we called to resist? What spiritual practices might support us this season?

March 5, Lent 2 -Reclaim
Can we reclaim the language of being born again? What is it that we want to be reborn to? What do we want to experience anew, as if for the first time?
John 3:1-17
March 12 - Lent 3, Reimagine
The woman at the well reimagines her own life, infused with living water and it looks very different. She reimagines her understanding of the Messiah and with his presence she understands faith in a new way. What happens (to us, to the world) when we reimagine some aspects of our beliefs?
John 4:5-42
March 19, Lent 4, Reveal
Guest Preacher Linda Moody
Jesus says God’s works are revealed in the man whose sight is restored. The man and others reveal (make known) their story of healing several times. What does it mean for God’s works to be revealed in a person’s life? What is being revealed in us? What are we revealing about God in & through our lives?
John 9:1-41
March 26, Lent 5, Restore
Lazaurs’ life is restored. What does his restoration teach us? What restores us and how does that restoration change us?
John 11:1-45

Those on the road revered Jesus with palms and hosannas. How might we hold celebration and desolation together as people of faith? What might being revealed to us?
Matthew 21:1-11

Re + member calls us to remember who we are in God w/ lord’s supper - “Do this in remembrance of me.”

Matthew says specifically that the women felt “fear and great joy.” How do we rejoice in the midst of fear? How does resurrection in the world lead us to rejoice?
