Welcome to week 1 of Lent 2025! This year, we’re diving deep into what it means to walk with Jesus during these 46 days of reflection, repentance, and renewal. Each week, we’ll explore a different theme, grounded in Scripture, and we’ll share some practical ways you can apply these truths to your life. Whether you’re reading this with your morning coffee, during a quiet moment, or in between the busyness of your day, my prayer is that this series will inspire, challenge, and encourage you in your faith journey.

Lent, beginning on Ash Wednesday, marks a 40-day period of penitence and preparation for Easter, inviting Christians to self-examine, repent, and seek God’s forgiveness. The imposition of ashes symbolizes mortality and sin, reminding worshippers of Christ’s sacrifice. This solemn period encourages reflection on the need for genuine repentance and spiritual renewal.

Lent is a 40-day Christian season preceding Easter, focusing on self-discipline, reflection, and preparation for baptism and conversion. Originating from early Church practices, it encourages repentance and penitential prayer. Lent commemorates Jesus’ sacrifice, involving fasting and charitable deeds, while promoting humility and recognition of God’s grace amidst personal and communal need for healing.
