This Lent, we invite you to use our 2025 Sumud Lenten Series resources for guided Bible studies. This series centers on Isaiah 58:6, “Is not this the fast I choose?”, with accompanying texts that follow Christ’s journey to the cross and resurrection.
There are six weeks in this series, and each week has a link to a Lenten video from the Holy Land featuring voices from the ELCJHL, a devotion written by a Palestinian theologian, a prayer to read aloud, and discussion questions to ponder with your group. Week 6 was written by a theologian from the ELCA.
