Giving up
Thursday, February 22, 2018
Surrender isn't sexy.
It's not trending on twitter.
It's not celebrated at ceremonies.
Giving up has got a bad name.
People don't like giving up.
That's why lent is such a problematic but profound season.
It goes against the grain of a success-saturated society;
calling into question all that we hold dear,
and calling us to let go of all that holds us back.

Fasting (giving up) chocolate or social media is a helpful start, but what Jesus really wants
is your heart,
your life,
your all.
is your heart,
your life,
your all.
This season of lent, follow along with our devotional.
Each week (starting on Sunday), there's a passage and a quote to speak life.
Some questions and space to stop and reflect.
A call to action, a call to give up.
