Misfit Messengers

Throughout Scripture we see God use all sorts of different people for His purposes, even the misfits, especially the misfits. That's us. We're just ordinary people that God has called to share His Gospel message with those we meet. We're misfits, but misfits with a message of hope, of love; a message that is changing the world. We invite you to our conversation about that message and the one who sent it to us to share.

Ash Wednesday begins the Christian season of Lent. In today's episode we chat about Lent and some of the practices of the church in this season. As we think about any traditions or rituals, we should always consider why we do them.

Do you do anything special to celebrate Lent? How do those practices lead you to deeper relationship to God?
