Lent 2025

When someone asks you, “How is your spiritual life going?” What comes to mind? How do you define spirituality? How do you assess spiritual growth? When someone asks you how your spiritual life is going, the real question is, “Are you becoming more loving towards God and people?” Regardless of anything else you measure, how you stand up against that statement will reveal your true spiritual stature. This measurement is the supreme spiritual diagnosis for Christ-followers who want to please him. What would this kind of life look like if you actually lived it out? 

Let’s face it, you could chalk this concept as another idea that sounds good but isn’t really practical. Yet God is inviting you to make each moment of every day a chance to learn from him and how to master the art of life. The apostle Paul put it like this: “Whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus. Why not give your spirituality a health check and join us this Lenten time on a journey “Living Hope”.
