Our Easter sermon series, "Following Jesus 101" continues this Sunday as we read I John 1:5-10 and allow John the Apostle to teach us about something Jesus had declared as an essential to following him in community. Three times in the first chapter, John uses the word "fellowship" and then he seeks to teach us about an essential "fuel" that is needed to make the fellowship function. Come join us for worship this Sunday at North Point as we learn what it means to follow Jesus in community.  

Blessings,
Pastor Rob

We know the practice of Lent was well established by the 4th century. The word Lent is germanic in origin and means ‘lengthening’ as in days, so often interpreted Springtime. 
Let’s assume, as some do, that the genesis of Lent came from early followers of Jesus preparing for 46 days to be baptized on Easter. And let’s assume that this practice was so meaningful that they took up the practice every year thereafter, not only to be refreshed again in their baptismal waters, but to actually mature, grow, and deepen their spiritual life with Jesus and other Jesus followers.
