"Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you."
— James 4:8
Your guide to the Lenten Journey
You are walking with Christ on His journey to Jerusalem. Each week, as you complete your assignments, your avatar advances along the trail — from the Wilderness to the Empty Tomb. If you fall behind, a ghost image shows where you should be. Will you follow, or are you falling behind?
