Lent 2026

Subscribe to Gospel in Life's 40 Day E-mail Devotional Find out more at gospelinlife.com/devotional/lent/ Have you ever wondered what people are talking about when they say they’re giving something up for Lent?

Winter 2025

Jesus instructed His disciples to go into the world and make disciples of all nations. If we’re a follower of Jesus then we have two calls: 1) to be made into a more mature disciple of Jesus; and 2) to help make others into more mature disciples of Jesus.
