MRDF and the Evangelical Alliance have collaborated to produce a series of inspirational audio reflections for Lent.

 

The material, which will be available from 17 February, is based on our latest study resource What does the Bible say about power? The audio clips focus on the successes and failures of Biblical figures – such as Samson and Jesus - and what each did with the power in their hands. The series, which comprises six podcasts, also challenges people to think about the power they have to impact the lives of others.

 

Audrey Skervin, MRDF Supporter Relations Officer, said: ‘Lent is an ideal time to think about Jesus and the power he set aside in the name of love. We hope the reflections will inspire people to use the power we have to make a positive impact on our local and global neighbours.'

 

Krish Kandiah, Executive Director for Churches in Mission at the Evangelical Alliance, said: ‘The Evangelical Alliance is delighted to be working with MRDF aiming to help the church get into the Bible during Lent as part of our Biblefresh campaign. We need to hear the prophetic voice of God's word challenging the way we use power, especially in the run-up to the general election.'

 

The first reflection can be downloaded here from 17 February. A new reflection will be available every week during Lent.
