We hope you will have a holy and meaningful Lent, and we are pleased to offer a number of resources to nurture you in your journey.

Our booklet of meditations this year is From Ashes to Hope. We are “marked for salvation,” reminds pastor John Windell in this series of short stories and vignettes on Christian discipleship for Lent 2012. With the down-to- earth, personal voice of a storyteller, Windell guides us on a challenging Lenten journey sure to inspire Christians of all backgrounds.

Available as a print book , Kindle ebook , or Nook ebook . We also have a number of other publications for Lent. Check out our Lent sampler packages, How to Keep Lent, or the Way of the Cross. And there are more titles too.
