Mysterious joy

"Rejoice! It's Lent." If you have always felt that way, but have been taught that Lent is supposed to be a somber, mournful time--if you've always believed that "Because Jesus lives in us, we face Lent with joy in our hearts"--you will appreciate Carl Hoefler's new collection of seventeen refreshingly upbeat sermons for Lent and Easter. Use these complete sermons as they are presented, or as creative inspiration for your own original messages. (Back cover).
