FORTY-DAYS THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE
Over two decades ago, I planned to spend a month pondering the passion narratives in preparation for Easter, and ended up traveling with Jesus through his final hours for almost a year. I was irrevocably changed and I couldn't keep it to myself. To that end, I wrote the book, Contemplating the Cross so that others might experience the wonder of the Cross. Every year since, I have spent the Lenten season on this same journey, captivated by the sweeping scope of God's love and the passion that drove Jesus to die so that we might experience it. I would love to have you join me this year. Here are some ways you can participate:
DAILY SCRIPTURE READINGS: I have provided daily readings that both follow Jesus' journey to the Cross and offer other related passages. These correspond to the daily Scriptures from Contemplating the Cross. Click here for a daily guide.

GET THE BOOK: If you haven't already, please order the book. It includes forty days of narratives based on Scripture and historical research, plus reflections designed to take you deep into the heart of Jesus as he travels his final hours. You can order from Amazon by clicking on image to the left.
FORM A GROUP: There is a great guide in the back of the book for groups of all sizes (large studies, families, small groups) that provides weekly templates to share what God is doing in you through this journey.
