Stretched: A Study for Lent and the Entire Christian Life

Stretched: A Study for Lent and the Entire Christian Life is a Scripture-centered Lent study that helps you engage Lent’s core themes―death, fasting, temptation, repentance, and piety―and carry their meaning into everyday Christian life.

This isn’t a “read-and-move-on” devotional. It’s an interactive journey through key biblical texts with a clear, grounding emphasis: God is the One who acts―testing faith, granting repentance, and reviving life by grace in Christ. As Lent’s days lengthen, you are “stretched,” and more profoundly, stretched out with Christ on the cross―learning what it means to live as the baptized.

Designed for individual reflection or group study,Stretched includes:

• Chapter discussion questions to guide thoughtful conversation
• Bible-reading-driven structure to keep the focus on Scripture
• Concluding meditations + topic-based questions for deeper reflection
 

Whether you’re walking through Lent alone or with your church, Stretched will engage your mind and soul―and show how God’s redemptive work in Christ shapes far more than a season.
