    2021 Lenten devotions from the Presbyterian Outlook

    December 23, 2020 by The Presbyterian Outlook Leave a Comment

    Praying with Scripture during Lent Theologically sound, inspiring and affordable devotions for the congregation The six-week Lenten journey is an opportunity to take on a new spiritual discipline. This year, congregations are invited to pray with Scripture as a way of discerning God’s movement in our personal lives and in the life of the world around us. 6 weeks of Lenten devotions — $20 About these devotions: Throughout the season of Lent, you will be invited to pray with one passage from Scripture each day and prompted to reflect on what it discloses to you about movement toward God and movement away from God in your life. These devotions written by Roger Gench, Presbyterian pastor and author, will guide you in this daily practice of praying with Scripture. John Calvin spoke of the Bible as the “lens of faith,” likening it to a pair of eyeglasses that enables us to see the world with clearer vision as God’s creation. As theologian Serene Jones noted in "Engaging … [Read more...]

    Advent devotions – Year C (2018)

    November 13, 2018 by The Presbyterian Outlook Leave a Comment

    Are you looking for theologically sound, inspiring and affordable Advent devotions for the congregation? The Presbyterian Outlook is once again offering accessible and inspiring daily devotions for Advent. This year the focus is on deepening and practicing our faith vocabulary. How do Christians change the narrative from one of division to one of unity? How do disciples of Jesus Christ practice what our Lord preaches? Each week of Advent focuses on a characteristic of God that God’s followers are also called to exhibit: patience, kindness, goodness and faithfulness. As we prepare for our Savior's birth and Second Coming, we are called to do so with eagerness and while exhibiting the traits of the one for whom we wait. Download the PDF, print as many as you need and insert them into your weekly worship bulletin. Written by Outlook editor Jill Duffield, each week includes a reflection, daily Scripture readings, suggestions for living out the Bible and a short prayer for each day. … [Read more...]
