Stretched: A Study for Lent and the Entire Christian Life - Paperback

by Christopher Richmann (Author), Christopher J. Richmann (Author), Steven D. Paulson (Foreword by)

Stretched: A Study for Lent and the Entire Christian Life is a Scripture-centered Lent study that helps you engage Lent's core themes--death, fasting, temptation, repentance, and piety--and carry their meaning into everyday Christian life.

This isn't a "read-and-move-on" devotional. It's an interactive journey through key biblical texts with a clear, grounding emphasis: God is the One who acts--testing faith, granting repentance, and reviving life by grace in Christ. As Lent's days lengthen, you are "stretched," and more profoundly, stretched out with Christ on the cross--learning what it means to live as the baptized.

Designed for individual reflection or group study, Stretched includes:

- Chapter discussion questions to guide thoughtful conversation
- Bible-reading-driven structure to keep the focus on Scripture
- Concluding meditations + topic-based questions for deeper reflection

Whether you're walking through Lent alone or with your church, Stretched will engage your mind and soul--and show how God's redemptive work in Christ shapes far more than a season.
