Lenten Study
Walking the Way of the Cross with Paul
Lent is, among other things, a journey on the way to the cross – a journey of learning how to appropriate Christ’s teaching about “taking up the cross” (Mark 8:34-35) for ourselves. This study, led by Patterson Lyles, will look at how one early Christian missionary, teacher and theologian sought to do just that in his work and in his life. Participants will examine a number of passages in Paul’s letters in order to reflect on the place of the cross in Christian lives today. The aim is to invite you into Lenten reflection and practice centered on the cross of Christ, guided by Paul’s own incorporation of the cross into his spirituality.
The lessons will be sent out by email each week. Class will meet on Wednesdays in March from 5:30 – 7:00. Martha and Mike have graciously offered to provide delicious soup once again – donations will go to support one of our church’s mission projects. A minimum of $5 is suggested.
