Have you ever heard God’s voice speaking to you in and through music? Has music ever made you feel as if you were in touch with something bigger than yourself?

During the season of Lent, we encourage you to participate in an email or text devotional. This year’s devotional is called “Out of the Dust.” A group of pastors (including Pastor Grace) worked together to create a devotional that is inspired by the power of music to point us to God. Each entry focuses on a song (whether an intentionally religious song or a “secular” song), connects it with Scripture or the life of faith, and offers a reflection on how this song can deepen our experience of Lent and/or our life with God. Each entry will include a Spotify link to the song for the day and there is a Spotify playlist containing all the songs that will be covered in this devotional. The devotional will be send out by email or text message throughout the season of Lent (starting on Ash Wednesday) several times a week.
