Items related to Bread in the Wilderness: Spiritual Famine or Gospel...
Christians know that we often live in the wilderness--a place of difficulty and even danger--and yet we also believe that there is bread in the wilderness. During the Lenten season, as we remember the story of God's faithfulness, and especially the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, we are given strength for life's journey, “bread” to sustain us through the wilderness and beyond.
This seven-session study, appropriate for both group and individual use, provides one lesson for each week in Lent. Each lesson includes a Scripture reference, a brief reflection, questions for reflection or discussion, a brief prayer, and a focus for the coming week.
