Journey to the Cross: A 40-Day Lenten Devotional (Unabridged‪)‬

Lent is a time in the yearly Christian calendar when we mourn our sin and let go of worldly things that keep our hearts from experiencing God more fully. But how do we reevaluate and recalibrate the values of our hearts to match those of our suffering savior?

In this 40-day Lenten devotional, best-selling author Paul David Tripp invites us to set aside time from the busyness of our lives to focus on the suffering and sacrifice of Jesus. Each of the short readings encourages us to abide in the abundant joy found in Christ as we encounter the savior more fully and follow him more faithfully during this Lenten season.

“Like so many others, I have benefited richly, and for years, from the ministry and writing of Paul Tripp. This latest work is no exception. Journey to the Cross is a precious reminder - one worth returning to again and again - of not only the rich benefits we receive through Christ’s humiliation, death, and burial, but also of his dignifying invitation to properly lament the wrong that is in the world and the wrong that is within us. The season of Lent is a special, 40-day season to enable and empower God’s people to do just that, and Tripp has provided us with a remarkable roadmap for the journey. I can’t recommend this wonderful resource highly enough.” (Scott Sauls, senior pastor, Christ Presbyterian Church, Nashville, Tennessee, and author, Jesus Outside the Lines and a Gentle Answer)

“Paul Tripp has once again led us past feel-good platitudes and into focused, Christward reflection. Through tension and tenderness, lament and thanksgiving, the Lenten season will transform us when it leads us to the cross of Christ.” (Ruth Chou Simons, Wall Street Journal best-selling author, Beholding and Becoming and GraceLaced, artist, and founder, GraceLaced Co.)
