Synopsis

God is often at work through the ordinary: ordinary people, ordinary objects, ordinary grace. Through the ordinary, God communicates epiphanies, salvation, revelation, and reconciliation. It is through the mundane that we hear Gods quiet voice.

In this devotion for the season of Lent, Jill J. Duffield draws listeners attention to ten ordinary objects that Jesus would have encountered on his way to Jerusalem: dust, bread, the cross, coins, shoes, oil, coats, towels, thorns, and stones. In each object, listeners will find meaning in the biblical account of Jesus final days. Each week, listeners encounter a new object to consider through Scripture, prayer, and reflection. From Ash Wednesday to Easter, Lent in Plain Sight reminds Christians to open ourselves to the kingdom of God.

What a thought provoking lenten read. Whatever you read about that morning, you can reflect on throughout the day because they are everyday objects. Full of Scripture and prayer to guide the process. Excellent.......more
