Meet Christ in your dorm this Holy Week

What does it look like to “take up your cross” this Lent? Most of us don’t have big, heavy, wooden beams lying around our apartments, dorm rooms, houses or barracks. We do, however, carry burdens. Life makes sure of that. We have the burdens of debt, of not-so-smart choices, of difficult relationships, of disease, stress, addiction, transition, and uncertainty. These burdens can keep us from living into the stature of Christ, the image of God in which we were created. This Lent we invite you both to lay down those burdens and to take them up, to face them and walk through them with Christ.
