Reorienting Our Rule of Lent

How might we name the need for and create a different set of practices, as well as theological and communal pathways according to our uniquenesses? On this second Sunday of Lent, Christopher Mack interrogates a one-size fits all spirituality and invites us to “begin again, again” this season. [Romans 4:13-15, 18-22]

 

Reflection

• What might respecting how the Divine Creator has made you look like on this lenten journey?
• How might you incorporate learning from someone else’s perspective into your lenten experience?
• Where might you need healing from a one-sized fits all approach to the spiritual journey?
