This devotional was created in response to the call of the 2019 Churchwide Assembly to condemn white supremacy and racist rhetoric. As you journey through Lent, this resource will challenge you and bring you closer to the radical neighbor-love that Christ demands in the Gospels.

ELCA Presiding Bishop Eaton speaks to the church about the need to check in on one another during this time of great anxiety and fear for so many members. "We have the promise of a God who meets us in our fear, who walks with us in our struggles, and who calls us to be bearers of hope.”
