Lent - A Closer Walk with God
Welcome to the Lent - A Closer Walk with God 40-Day Devotion!
Lent is a special time to draw near to God. The Bridge invites you to a daily devotion during March and early April. Every day, you’ll find a new Bible verse paired with a thoughtful devotion designed to inspire and uplift your spirit.
Take this time to enjoy a closer walk with God. The next 40 days of prayer, fasting, reflection, repentance, and giving will stretch you. But they will also be very rewarding. Each devotion will encourage you to examine how you incorporate prayer, fasting, reflection, repentance, and giving into your life.
This is a great time to take a closer walk with God. Come back each day, and we will enjoy this walk together!
