My friend and colleague Rev. Emmitt Drumgoole, pastor of Montgomery Hills Baptist Church in Silver Spring, Maryland, recently shared that his church is planning to use At Home with God: How the Cross Transforms Us as part of its Lenten emphasis. Our congregation will be journeying through the book during Lent as well, and I have begun developing a sermon series to accompany it. I told @EmmittDrumgoole I would be glad to share that outline with him, and I would be glad to share it with other pastors who may find it useful. I am also considering writing a daily Lenten devotional and sharing it through Substack as a way of supporting our congregation and other churches, groups, and individuals who want to engage the book prayerfully throughout the season. If you are a pastor or church leader considering the book for a sermon series, reading group, personal study, or broader Lenten emphasis, I would love to connect and hear what might be helpful. At Home with God releases in November and is available for preorder now: a.co/d/02lZESqO @ivpress #atonement #lent #church #pastor #Jesus
