You Are Dust - Audio
As with all good things, over time we begin to lose the impact and perspective we had when we first experienced them. Lent fits within this paradigm.
While Ash Wed and the season of Lent do not have the same appeal to our culture as Advent/Christmas, they haven't remained untouched by a culture that doesn't understand why the church observes the 40 days of Lent.
Even Christians struggle with the purpose, process and length of Lent. Familiarity with Lent has bred, an unfortunate spirit of neglect due largely to a misunderstanding of its meaning and significance.
Our Wednesday worship theme: The Language of Lent, will seek to explore and unpack common misunderstood words and practices associated with Lent.
