What is Lent?
<p>March 8, 2022 Dear friends, Here’s a beautiful description of the season of Lent and a prayer to go with it: Lent Christ has humbled Himself and become obedient unto death, even the death of the Cross. The earliest Christians set aside days during which they prepared themselves to celebrate<span class="more-button"><a href="https://www.concordialcms.com/2022/03/08/what-is-lent/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text">What is Lent?</span></a></sp

Remember you are dust
<p>March 1, 2022 Dear friends, Why is it Ash Wednesday? Ashes were a sign of mourning among the people of Israel.

Paul brought Timothy with him on his way and trained him up in the faith to be an evangelist. He sent Timothy to minister where he<span class="more-button"><a href="https://www.concordialcms.com/2022/01/24/fight-the-good-fight/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text">Fight the good fight</span></
