Stretched

Stretched: A Study for Lent and the Entire Christian Life is a Scripture-centered Lent study that helps you engage Lent‘s core themes-- death, fasting, temptation, repentance, and piety --and carry their meaning into everyday Christian life. This isn‘t a "read-and-move-on" devotional. It‘s an interactive journey through key biblical texts with a clear, grounding emphasis: God is the One who acts --testing faith, granting repentance, and reviving life by grace in Christ. As Lent‘s days lengthen, you are "stretched," and more profoundly, stretched out with Christ on the cross--learning what it means to live as the baptized. ed for individual reflection or group study, Stretched includes: - Chapter discussion questions to guide thoughtful conversation - Bible-reading-driven structure to keep the focus on Scripture - Concluding meditations + topic-based questions for deeper reflection Whether you‘re walking through Lent alone or with your church, Stretched will engage your mind and soul--and show how God‘s redemptive work in Christ shapes far more than a season.
