“All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that the person of God may be proficient, equipped for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17).
VPC’s 2025 Lent Devotional
We invite you to rediscover the beauty of simple spiritual practices, learning how small, consistent acts of faith can nurture our connection with God. In our fast-paced world, it’s easy to view spiritual disciplines as another challenge on our overwhelming to-do lists. To this, Jesus says: “Come to me, all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). Join us this Lent as we simply come to Jesus.
