The word Lent derives from the Latin word lente, which means slow and from the Old English word lencten, meaning 'springtime.' On the one hand, this calls our attention to the way time seems to drag by and even stand still during periods of intense grief, suffering, deprivation, and pain; it also points out the corresponding reality that renewal and rebirth often involve a long, slow process of unfolding.
-Paul Rankin, As Sparks Fly Upward: Meditation for Lent
The following works were created during Lent 2020 in collaboration with 6 other visual artists and 40+ congregational authors from Redeemer Church, PCA to create the above cited devotional book. For more information about the sponsoring ministry, visit the Redeemer Community Arts website
