Easter Devotional: “Dawn”

(0)

“The darkest hour is just before the dawn.”

“It’s a new day dawning.”

“Since the dawn of time …”

Dawn is a marker—a stake in the ground—a signal of the end of something past, and the start of something new. What sort of dawn will this Easter be?

Dawn, the final installment of weekly online Easter devotionals distributed by Willow Creek Community Church, examines the “points of midnight” Jesus experienced in the days leading up to Easter morning, and invites readers to explore their own dark nights of the soul preceding the dawn that Easter brings.

As an added bonus, musicians from Willow Creek’s worship teams are providing six original worship songs that can be either streamed or downloaded onto an MP3 player. Readers may incorporate these songs into their journey toward Easter dawn.

Easter Devotional, Week 4: “Alone”

(0)

 

When a newborn is over-stimulated by noise or activity, he or she will often close their eyes to cut out the offending stimulation—and may even fall asleep. When God invites us to look inward and examine the state of our souls, is He also inviting us to close our  eyes and cut the offending stimulation out of our overly busy lives? Willow Creek Community Church invites readers to explore the concept of "alone" in Week 4 of the 2010 Easter devotionals.
