Lenten Storytelling with Porter Taylor

Lent is less a season to observe and more a walk to walk. As the days get longer and the light more accessible, so are we invited to cast aside all that gets between us and resurrection. One theologian commented, “Everything that happens to Christ happens to us.” In that sense, the Bible is a road map for us to follow, indicating the terrain of our journey with Christ and in Christ and to Christ.

These five sessions are intended to help us discover how we can consciously walk the way of Lent. Each week we will focus on a di erent theme and engage in one of the readings from the Lenten lectionary for the upcoming Sunday. Rather than a Bible study, we are invited to discover how to live this Lenten journey in our own lives. This is a community sharing how they have walked and are walking the Lenten pilgrimage.
