Synopsis

"This Lenten daily devotional is ideal for individual and group use as it focuses on the fact that “God loves and values us in and for our differences, not in spite of them.” It is biblically based as Dr. Tuell reflects on passages from across Scripture, but particularly from the Hebrew Bible. This devotional invites deep reflection, prayer and conversation with others weaving together faith, love, justice, and daily living. This devotional invites persons to read the Gospel lessons from the Revised Common Lectionary for the Sundays of Lent in the spiritual practice of Lectio Divina. It includes a brief guide for how to do Lectio Divina."
