March is the month of hope. Even if you live in parts of the world where the ground is still iced over, days are getting a little longer, and there is a definite shift in the air. Snowdrops and crocuses begin to break through the soil, just as we are getting into the middle of the Lenten season—the earth reminding us of the forthcoming celebration of a risen and ascended Christ.
So as the earth begins to thaw, may you find time to experience the repentance, reflection, and renewed joy that this season brings. It is with that heart that we have curated the list of books and Bible studies below. Each one is designed to meet you right where you are and point you to the beauty and grace of Jesus.
