Lenten Study

An Unlikely Lent

Be a part of the annual Lenten Study. Each year, for the six weeks before Easter, the church participates in a church-wide study that encompasses weekly reading, life group discussions and Sunday sermons.

This year’s study is An Unlikely Lent by Rachel Billups. Groups begin the week of February 22. Join a group if you aren’t already a part of one! Books are available at Floris for sale at a discounted rate of $15 and will be sold on Sunday’s in the Gathering Space beginning February 8. Aren’t a part of a group? Sign up for one now here or in in the Gathering Space beginning February 8.

Study Overview: The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus are at the heart of the story of Easter. But the resurrection was not witnessed in isolation; it unfolded before a crowd. What might the stories of those women and men teach us today? How will they help us step into the story of Easter? Here, we can see what has been overlooked, not just in the grand moments but in the in-between: the silence, the side characters, and the questions. Watch trailer.
