This series explores the historic Christian season of Lent—from Ash Wednesday through Palm Sunday. This rich Christian tradition points us back to the reality of our sin and our desperate need for a Savior. During this season, we focus on the multifaceted aspects of repentance: recognition of our sin, hope in a Savior, and obedience as a response to his grace. Rather than engage in empty ceremony or purely internal spiritual growth, we learn that observance of this season produces in us a richer faith for the sake of the world. In this episode, "The Real Reward", when we empty ourselves in order to be prepared for the entrance of Christ into our lives and the entrance of the mission he comes to accomplish. We may not know what God intends to do in our lives, but we can trust that he is working to fulfill his promises.
