Week 7 (Holy Week): Reflections on the Passion of Christ

What a journey we’ve shared these 40 days! As we enter this holiest of weeks, we’re not just observing history – we’re stepping into the greatest love story ever told. From the upper room to the garden, from the cross to the empty tomb – every moment pulses with God’s radical, world-changing love.

Week 6: The Humility of Christ

Good morning EC family! Can you believe we’re already just a few days away from Palm Sunday? As we enter week 6 of Lent, we begin to prepare for Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week. This is a time to reflect on Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem, where crowds waved palm branches and shouted, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” (Matthew 21:9). Yet, amidst the celebration, Jesus’ humility shines through. He didn’t come as a conquering king on a warhorse; He came as a servant on a donkey.

Week 4: Sacrifice and Denial

In Mark 8:34-36, Jesus says, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.”

Week 3: Forgiveness and Reconciliation

This week, we’re diving into one of the most challenging yet transformative aspects of our faith: Forgiveness. Forgiveness isn’t just a nice idea; it’s a command from Jesus. In Matthew 18:21-22, Peter asks Jesus, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus responds, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.”

Week 2: The Power of Fasting and Prayer

Fasting and prayer are not about earning God’s favor; they are about drawing near to Him. James 4:8 promises, “Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.” This Lent let’s embrace the joy of intimacy with God through fasting and prayer. Even when it feels challenging, remember that God sees your heart and honors your efforts.

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.
