Broken and Becoming: Following the Disciples to the Cross Imagine that you were a disciple, following Jesus for 3 years, seeing His miracles, hearing His teaching, amazed at His compassion and grace towards people- and His anger at those who used religion to exert power over others. You are expecting a great overthrow of the religious powers, and most especially the political powers of Rome that dominated. A new King and Kingdom are here! Instead, Jesus begins speaking of His death! Shock. During Lent, we will walk with the disciples through the upside down leadership of Jesus and His message that He will be killed. They/We fail over and over (Broken), yet Jesus keeps forgiving and loving with amazing grace....and they/we begin to be formed more like Jesus in the process (Becoming). We see Jesus through the eyes of His disciples, and we see ourselves, as we move toward the cross.
