The daily devotions in this booklet highlight the concepts of being sent, demonstrating faith in action, and being mission-minded each day of Lent. Suggested activities are associated with preparing our hearts, souls and minds to reflect on the suffering, death and resurrection of Christ and his mission for us.

So it only makes sense for us in this day and age to call ourselves Followers of the Way, especially during this season of Lent as we make the journey to the cross to find the One who is the Way, the Truth and the Life for us. Take time each day of Lent to read a prayer from this booklet to remember that the way Christ lived and died for us transforms the way we live our lives for him.

Colossians 2:13-14—“Christ has utterly wiped out the damning evidence of broken laws and commandments which always hung over our heads, by nailing it over his own head on the cross”—stands as the cornerstone of each reflection, and readers are encouraged each day to use a real nail as a hands-on reminder of the meaning of Christ’s suffering and death for their lives. Code YN1 • Paper • 32 pages • 5⅜" x 8⅜" Daily Prayers for Lent By Susan Senechal “He spoke to them in parables,” the Bible tells us of Jesus, and in this daily devotional for Lent, these very parables of our Lord speak to us of core components of this sacred season as we reflect on his suffering, death and resurrection for us. Author Dean Nadasdy takes us through some of the most well-known and beloved parables of Scripture and relates the events described there to the events of Lent we experience, helping us to apply the divine messages of these stories to the story of our life in Christ.

This Lenten booklet is sure to be a popular selection for your congregation.

Nouwen, one of the most widely read spiritual writers of our time. His deeply moving spiritual insights and prayerful conversations with God are particularly timely during this holy season of Lent when we contemplate the Christ who is our hope through his suffering, death and resurrection. Each meditation begins with a relevant quote from Scripture and ends with a brief prayer.

Taking up our crosses is not about sacrificing ourselves for sins. Instead, taking up a cross is about self-denial and sacrifice; it is about presenting our bodies as “a living sacrifice” (Romans 12:1). Let these daily prayers for Lent help you to do just that. 2-49 $.97 350-499 $.61 Christ Our Hope 500-1499 $.55 1500+ $.49 Also available on Devotions For Our Lenten Journey From Cross To Empty Tomb By Rich Bimler Daily Prayers For Lent By Trevor Sutton 1 $1.49 125-349 $.63 Daily Lenten Devotions By Henri J.M. Nouwen The complexity of a vineyard, the miracles that occur throughout the cycles of the seasons and the craft of the grape growers humbly fulfilling their vocation, all provide us with a rich lens to rediscover and invigorate our own lives as followers of Christ the Crucified. Join author Kurt Senske on this walk through the Vineyard, being led by Christ, our true Vine, during the days of Lent—and any time—as we drink in what our Lord has to say through the imagery of wine in the shadow of his sacrifice for us. Code KS2 • Paper • 32 pages • 5⅜" x 8⅜" 2-49 $.97 1 $1.49 Also available on Lessons From Our True Vine By Kurt Senske 1 $1.49 The great spiritual writer Henri J.M. Nouwen (1932-1996) discovered profound meaning in the Parable of the Prodigal Son at a crucial point in his own spiritual development. Finding in the parable “the whole Gospel,” Nouwen points out that the very nature of the father in the parable is love, forgiveness and reconciliation. This booklet is drawn from recorded conferences Nouwen gave on the parable and its relationship to the famous painting by Rembrandt, “The Return of the Prodigal Son.” Code NW5 • Paper • 32 pages • 5⅜" x 8⅜" Lenten Devotional Booklets Lenten Devotional Booklets *prices listed are per book per title These devotions for Lent highlight the fact that our lives are filled with both Good Friday murmurs of sadness and grief and Easter moments of joy and celebration.

T h e Pa r a bl e s Of L e n t Ash Wednesday Week 1 Series of Services for the Season of Lent A by Rev. Dean Nadasdy and Rev. Tom Eggebrecht Week 2 Week 3 Each service in this series focuses on a biblical parable that connects to Lenten themes. Sermons by renowned preacher Rev. Dean Nadasdy reveal that within each parable’s plot is woven a unique message about what we receive through the crucified Christ. Parishioners can take the message with them to enrich their own stories of faith in Jesus as they journey through Lent. • Ash Wednesday: “Receive Justification: The Pharisee and the Tax Collector” • Luke 18:9-14 • The tax collector who repents goes home justified, while the proud Pharisee does not. We, too, who repent are justified through Christ. • Week 1: “Receive the Word: The Sower and the Seed” • Matthew 13:1-8, 18-23 • The seed that falls on fertile soil takes root and grows, while seeds in other soils fail. The Word of Christ flourishes within us. • Week 2: “Receive the Treasure: The Hidden Treasure and the Priceless Pearl” • Matthew 13:44-46 Two men give all that they have to buy objects of great worth. We who are priceless to Christ receive him who gave all that he had to call us his own. • Week 3: “Receive Mercy: The Good Samaritan” • Luke 10:25-37 • A man beaten on the road gets help from an unlikely traveler. We who are often beaten down along the road of life encounter the healing of Christ through the cross. Week 4 Week 5 • Week 4: “Receive Grace: The Workers in the Vineyard” • Matthew 20:1-16 • All workers in a vineyard are given the same pay from the master, no matter how long they have labored. All who have been called by the Master are blessed by the same reward in Christ. • Week 5: “Receive Forgiveness: The Prodigal Son” • Luke 15:11-32 • A wayward son returns to the forgiving embrace of his father, who welcomes him home. We who have strayed return again and again to the embrace of our Father, through the sacrifice of his Son.

Written by seminary professor Joel Biermann, each service in this stirring series focuses on a certain event in the Lenten story and takes a good, hard look at a broken element from that particular story. Coming to an understanding of how each of these broken elements leads to restoration in Christ is key to understanding what it ultimately means to live today as new creations in Christ.

Week by week, responsive calls to worship, Scripture readings, hymn stanzas, and prayers invite congregation members to focus their attention on: • the feet of Christ • the eyes of Christ • the hands of Christ • the mouth of Christ • the ears of Christ • the heart of Christ. Homilies on these topics, rich in biblical references, are scripted in such a way that they may be offered by two persons as dialog sermons—or by a single preacher. Full-color bulletin covers feature stained glass art treasures. Bulletins may be ordered with order of service printed, or with inside pages and back cover blank. Pastors and parishes participating in Lenten pulpit exchanges will notice that the six services may be offered in any order. A pastor (or team) from each congregation could present its assigned service in neighboring churches on a rotating schedule. Week 3 Maundy Thursday Along with scripts and music for the theme hymn, the kit includes samples of all six preprinted bulletins. These bulletins contain a detailed order of service, complete with responsive opening dialog, psalmody, prayers, and listed Scriptures. Notes for Worship Leaders include hymn suggestions and more. For your convenience, each kit includes a CDROM (Mac/PC) in MS Word, RTF and ASCII formats with text of all elements of the program and of the bulletins.

Code 8CR • $79.99 Lent 2015 Christianity and Islam Words unfamiliar to most Americans are now heard daily on the evening news: jihad, Islam, Allah, Quran, fatwa, imam, ummah, Ramadan. Today, there are approximately seven million Muslims and more than 13,000 mosques in North America. Now that Muslims are our neighbors, how do we talk to them about Christ? What do Muslims think about Jesus? Which beliefs do we share in common with Muslims and where do we differ from them? Do we worship the same God they worship? Is the Father of Jesus the God of Muhammad? Noted theologian, best-selling author, editor, and Dean of Beeson Divinity School at Samford University Dr. Timothy George teams with T. N. Mohan, producer-director of the award-winning films Hanged on a Twisted Cross, Here I Stand, and For One English Officer, to answer these and other questions in this visually rich four-part TV series. The series avoids the angry condemnation of all Muslims on the one hand, and a minimizing of Christian truth-claims on the other. Without assuming an air of superiority or denigrating Islam, Dr. George joins Muslim scholars, clergy and the laity to discuss the serious theological differences between Islam and Christianity, and presents a balanced portrayal of Islam in the light of the Christian faith. Included is a study guide containing additional background information, biblical comparisons, and discussion questions on each of the four 25-minute programs. 1. The Tenets of Islam; 2. The Trinity; 3. The Bible and the Incarnation; 4.
