Lent is a terrible time to follow Jesus. This was the realization that awoke a young minister to experience Lent as a door into the deepest questions of faith. How does Jesus' death save me? What is suffering? What does the cross create in the world? In a series of seven essays, Matthew A. Jones wrestles with these questions and more. Part spiritual journal, part exploratory biblical theology, this debut bookinvites us to reconsider Jesus' passion and death, to experience union with a suffering Christ, and to ask what it means to follow him through the darkest of seasons.
