Take a 40 day journey of understanding with 40 words connected to Lent and Easter. Ever wonder why people put ashes on their forehead on Ash Wednesday? Or maybe you've heard of Maundy Thursday but don't really know what it means. Whether you've grown up in church or not, many terms surrounding Lent and Easter can be perplexing. This book explains 40 key words from the Bible and the Christian faith that focus on the Easter season. In a creative and meaningful way, brothers Ken and Randy Petersen show the relevance of each term by tying in stories from across the Bible as well as offering insight into what the words mean in their original language. Every easy-to-read entry includes a Bible verse, devotional reading, and a reflective question, prayer prompt, or exercise so you can truly understand the significance of the word. Explore fasting, lament, penance, sacrifice, hosanna, and more so you can have a fuller picture of what the somber time of Lent and joyful Resurrection Day are all about. You'll gain a deeper understanding of the terms you're already familiar with, while learning the significance of other words you've wondered about. Along the way, you'll grow to appreciate even more the sacrifice of Jesus and how you can respond.…
