The pivotal event in world history is the birth of Jesus Christ; the central
point for humans in history is the resurrection from the dead of
God's Son three days after His crucifixion. This Lenten season increase your
understanding of the magnitude of Christ's rising from the dead in either
one or both of Lutheran Hour Ministries' seasonal devotions. From
The Mount of Transfiguration to Mount Calvary – A Lenten Journey renders
in a style familiar to long-time readers the salient events in Christ's life
inaugurated by His transfiguration and accomplished by His atoning work on
Calvary. Walking With Jesus follows the Lord in a contemporary
voice as He ministers to those around Him, befriending and encouraging those
who would follow Him and, all the time displaying compassion for a sinful
and renegade world.
Both versions capture how the gift of God's pure love—a love that is simply beyond our
comprehension—found its full expression in the life, death, and resurrection
of His Son Jesus Christ.
 From The Mount of Transfiguration to Mount Calvary
Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod Pastor and Chaplain Vern Gundermann takes
the reader alongside Jesus as He completes His earthly mission in His Father's
service. Everywhere Jesus went—whether along a dusty back road or a paved city
street—what stood front and center for Him was the cross. And it was against
those rough timbers that He—the Christ, God's “anointed one”—would ultimately
find Himself nailed.
Walking With Jesus
During the Lenten season, the Church acknowledges Christ's passion and celebrates
His victory over the forces of darkness. The consequences of misapprehending
the significance of Christ's atoning work on the cross and what His resurrection
from the dead means for each of us cannot be overstated. In Walking With
Jesus, Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod educator
Chuck Strohacker puts the reader on an inside track showing what that victory
means in the life of a believer.
