From Ashes to Alleluia - Lent 2026

From Ashes to Alleluia: A Journey of Transformation is a seven-week Lenten series that walks us honestly and intentionally toward Easter. Lent is a season of slowing down—of reflection, repentance, and preparation—so that resurrection doesn’t feel routine, but life-changing.

This series begins in the dust, inviting us to face our humanity, our brokenness, and our need for grace. Along the way, we step into the wilderness with Jesus, name our fears, and learn to trust God in places that feel uncertain or uncomfortable. We are reminded that God sees us fully—even in moments when we feel overlooked—and that we can bring our grief, questions, and struggles to Him without pretending.

As the journey unfolds, we are challenged to examine our expectations of Jesus and to follow Him not as the King we might prefer, but as the humble, cross-shaped King He truly is. Lent reshapes our hearts—teaching us honesty, surrender, compassion, and deeper faith.

And then, after walking through confession, wilderness, fear, lament, and surrender, we arrive at Easter. The resurrection doesn’t come as a distant idea, but as a powerful, hope-filled reality that changes everything.

Whether you’ve observed Lent for years or are experiencing it for the first time, this series invites you into a meaningful journey—from ashes to alleluia, from honesty to hope, from death to life.
