SUMMARY:“Woke” Lent 2024: Join the Movement’s Lenten Series Launch
DESCRIPTION:If Jesus’ time in the desert teaches us anything\, perhaps it is that there are risks to the heart-opening\, mind-expanding\, gut-wrenching\, new life-awakening path of liberation. And we need messengers and journey companions who will meet us along the way\, bearing comfort and strength. \nThis Lent\, Join the Movement is inviting us to turn toward one such journey companion: Curtiss Paul DeYoung’s new book The Risk of Being Woke: Sermonic Reflections for Activists. Rooted in the activism that emerged following George Floyd’s murder\, this book offers biblical reflections to “nurture and nudge us as we encounter risks in the midst of the journey” (xvii). \nIts three sections call us to action\, to community and to root deeply in a relationship with God\, offering each of us the opportunity to take stock\, deepen our commitment\, and find sustenance for the work of racial justice ahead. Come spend some time with the author\, Curtiss Paul DeYoung\, and learn more about his journey\, the book and the ways you can participate in this Lent series.
