Lent Journey 2011: Risen Indeed!

Risen Indeed!

I'll always be indebted to the Greek community that surrounded Elissa and me during the many years we lived in Astoria. I continue to be inspired by the customary greeting they give one another not only on Easter Sundays, but for a full forty days afterwards:

    Christos anesti!
    Alithos anesti!

    He is risen!
    He is risen, indeed!

Can I get an Amen?

Sorry to keep you waiting ... You remind me of those faithful women at the tomb. What a joyous relief -- risen indeed!

WELCOME TO THE JOURNEY

The season of Lent is an opportunity...

a time for a new journey--or at least a time to be aware of the journey we're already on. Check back each week new devotions, and for suggestions how you might focus your heart and mind as you journey into Lent to meet God in new ways.

Keep checking back! Through the week following Easter Sunday, I'll post at least three devotions per week. If you're just starting out here, you might especially want to read the "introduction" post.

Throughout these weeks of Lent, my prayer for you is that you will experience Christ in the wilderness.

Oh--and one more thing. Please feel free to leave comments and share with the rest of us what you're thinking and experiencing along the way!
