The Cross cannot be defeated, for it is Defeat. - G.K. Chesterton
Lent (starting tomorrow) is a time for discipline, for confession, for honesty. Not because God is mean or fault-finding, but because He wants us to know the joy of being cleaned out, ready for all the good things He has in store. - N.T. Wright
Begin praying now about who you should invite to Easter services.

His blood poured out, my sin erased
The road to the cross teaches us this: The journey might be painful, but the end is greater than the struggle.
