You can pick up your Lenten devotional from the kiosk in the Gathering Place: Discipleship in a Divided Age: A Lenten Journey Through Matthew’s Gospel. In a world marked by division, uncertainty and competing narratives, Matthew’s Gospel speaks with striking relevance. Matthew’s first audience — a young, fragile community navigating conflict, identity and fear — sounds a lot like the church today. This Lenten devotional by Outlook editor Teri McDowell Ott invites readers to journey through Matthew’s Gospel to discover how Jesus leads us toward humility, courage, compassion and faithful discipleship amid the fractures of our age.

Join Pastor Chrissy on Wednesdays at noon, beginning March 4, as we use this devotional to guide the Wednesday Noon Prayer Service through Lent. It you would prefer a digital version, please email Pastor Chrissy: chrissyw@fpckzoo.org
