Lent For Justice: 2. 1st Sunday Of Lent

For the first Sunday of Lent, Jesus is tempted in the desert. We go to the desert as well, where egos and outside noise are stripped away. It is a retreat that is not a defeat, but a regrouping to move forward. Justice requires effort and dedication; doing the work requires rest and refreshment.

Welcome to this meditation series for the season of Lent. If you are unfamiliar with the liturgical season of Lent, it is the six weeks or 40 days preceding Easter. Reflecting the 40 days Jesus spent in the desert, this time of fasting, prayer, and giving prepares us for the miracle of the Resurrection. This series is based in the Christian story, but know all are welcome who know the justice of this world is imperfect.
