Product Description
by Chuck Warnock (Author), Jim Stovall (Author)
Journey through the transformative season of Lent with this thoughtful and accessible study guide that illuminates seven powerful Gospel stories. The Way of Grace: Gospel Stories for Lent offers both individual readers and study groups a fresh perspective on Jesus' path from the wilderness to the cross-and beyond to resurrection.
Written by pastor Chuck Warnock and journalist Jim Stovall, this guide combines pastoral wisdom with journalistic clarity to create a unique study experience. Each chapter delves deep into familiar Gospel passages while revealing unexpected insights and contemporary applications. From Jesus' temptation in the wilderness to the women's discovery of the empty tomb, readers will find:
- Seven complete lesson plans with historical context and modern applications
- Daily devotional readings that connect ancient wisdom to contemporary life
- Discussion questions that prompt meaningful conversation and personal reflection
- Detailed leader's guides for group study
- Real-life stories that illuminate scriptural truths
What sets this Lenten study apart is its dual focus on both understanding and application. The authors weave together biblical scholarship, pastoral experience, and contemporary storytelling to create a guide that speaks to both mind and heart. Modern narratives-from a German soldier finding grace in a POW camp to a family discovering hope in tragedy-parallel the Gospel stories, showing how ancient truths resonate in today's world.
Perfect for:
- Individual spiritual reflection during Lent
- Sunday School classes and Bible study groups
- Pastor and lay leader preparation
- Small group discussions
- Personal devotional reading
