There’s no one quite like Bible teacher and author Lisa Harper. She joins Raechel and Amanda to dig deep into week four of our Lent reading plan. Together they talk about the soft, gooey center of the book of Jeremiah, what happens when suffering collides with joy, and why Christians ought to be Easter-people all year round.

Confession & Assurance:
Confession:
Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen. —from the Book of Common Prayer
Assurance:
Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
Blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. —Psalm 32:1-2 ESV
