Mosaic of Grace:
A Disciple's Journey
to Easter

The Christian season of Lent began on Ash Wednesday, February 18. This year, we are naming our Lenten journey “Mosaic of Grace: Why Did Jesus Have to Die?” This Lent, journey toward Easter through reflection, prayer, and intentional practices that help piece together the story of Christ’s love and sacrifice. Discover how God’s grace meets you in every part of your story, broken and beautiful alike.

JOURNEY TO EASTER

Walking Together One Faithful Step At A Time

Lent is a holy season of slowing down, reflection, and turning our hearts toward God. This year at St. Andrew’s, we invite you to journey through Lent with our theme, Mosaic of Grace: "Why Did Jesus Have to Die?" inspired by the book of the same name by Rev. Adam Hamilton.

Like a mosaic made of many broken and beautiful pieces, our understanding of Christ’s sacrifice is formed through different perspectives: love and suffering, justice and mercy, surrender and hope. Each week of Lent offers space to reflect on these themes through Scripture, prayer, simple fasting practices, and intentional acts of compassion.

Join the Journey of "Mosaic of Grace: A Disciple's Journey to Easter". Each week, you are invited to use the Mosaic of Grace 40 Days of Lent Journal (scroll down to download the journal), a space for prayerful self-reflection in your personal discipleship journey with Jesus. These weekly practices: Scripture, reflection, fasting challenges, and intentional responses are meant to help you slow down, become more attentive to God’s presence, and notice where grace is meeting you in real life.

This journey is designed to meet you where you are. Whether you are new to faith, returning after a long season, or walking closely with Christ, Lent is an invitation to pause, listen, and allow God’s grace to shape you from the inside out.

As we walk toward the cross and onward to the hope of Easter morning, may you discover how God is gently piecing together a deeper faith within you, one faithful step at a time.

Sounds of Lent

This Lent Worship Playlist was curated to walk with you through "Mosaic of Grace: A Disciple’s Journey to Easter", our Lenten series exploring the heart of the gospel and the question, “Why did Jesus have to die?”

 

Like a mosaic, this season is made of many small, honest pieces: our questions, our repentance, our longing, our trust. These songs create space for reflection, prayer, and surrender as you journey with Jesus toward the cross and the hope of resurrection.

 

Use this playlist during your devotional time, journaling, quiet prayer, or even while you drive. Let the music become a companion helping you slow down, listen deeper, and open your heart to the grace that meets us again and again.
