Fasting as Worship

Week 4, Day 19 - Lent 2022

March 31, 2022 • Pastor Chris Douglas

Fasting as a means of worship is another way that we cultivate a spiritual habit of bringing a sacrifice of praise. Fasting is following in the way of Jesus by denying ourselves. It is a way to put some skin in the game for our worship life.

On the Cross

April 15, 2022 • Pastor Chris Douglas

As I sing this song, “You Were On The Cross” my prayer is that we will once again come face to face with the suffering that Christ endured on behalf of us. What greater love has been poured out than by Jesus on the cross.

Fast: To Suffer With

April 14, 2022 • Avery Marks

To fast is powerful in part because we are choosing to step into suffering. It’s counterintuitive and requires a death of ego, a death of self. To fast is to choose to suffer physical pain—however small. Fasting is an opportunity to enter into solidarity with Christ’s suffering, who was in solidarity with ours.

Stations of the Cross

April 13, 2022 • Pastor Nina Schmidgall • 2 Corinthians 5

The Stations of the Cross is a traditional Lenten devotion where believers read Scripture and ponder scenes from the day of Jesus’s death. These stations, or scenes, help guide our prayers as we meditate on Christ’s sacrifice for us.
