Holy Week with The Liturgists

As Lent draws to a close and Holy Week approaches, I wanted to let you know about a cool project I had the pleasure of working on with Michael and Lisa Gungor, Rob Bell, Amena Brown, Aaron Purdy, Mike McHargue and other creative types collectively known as The Liturgists. 

This week, The Liturgists released ‘Garden’—which combines music, prayer, poetry, and spoken word to create an honest and evocative liturgy around Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter Sunday. For my part—Holy Saturday—I adapted and read a post entitled “Holy Week for Doubters.” (But be sure to listen to each entry. You will love "Friday" and "We Believe"...and well all of it.) 

As I look ahead to what’s next in life, this is just the sort of work I hope to do more often. And I hope you, your family, and perhaps your faith community resonate with  ‘Garden.’
