“A Pilgrimage Through the Holy Season of Lent”
The Passionate Love of God as Revealed in Jesus Christ and The Messianic Hope
This devotional series features reflections on the penitential Psalms (6, 32, 38, 51. 102, 130, 143) and their connection to Christ’s passion. It also examines Lent from a Messianic Jewish perspective, offering a broader view of Jesus in God’s plan.
Beginning on Ash Wednesday, February 18, this devotional is centered on humility, repentance, and gratitude. Emphasizing Jesus’s humble birth, simple life, and sacrificial death, it invites us to imagine his final days and consider their significance in our own lives.
