Clinging to the Cross is a beautifully written, Christ-centered Bible study that gently and powerfully leads your heart back to the only place true hope is found—the cross of Calvary. In a world that feels heavy with sin and brokenness, this 40-day Lent study offers us deep comfort, rich biblical insight, and lasting hope rooted in the Good News of the Gospel.
What makes this study especially meaningful to me is how it weaves the Old Testament and New Testament together, helping readers understand why Jesus had to die and how God’s redemptive plan has always pointed to the cross—always. The explanations of Old Testament symbols and stories bring fresh clarity and deepen your appreciation for Christ’s sacrifice.
Each day invites you to slow down and reflect, and honestly bring your brokenness to Jesus—not try to fix yourself, but to cling to the One who heals, redeems, and restores. The pacing is thoughtful and doable, the reflection days are refreshing, and the weekly summaries help solidify what you’re learning without feeling overwhelming.
The included digital access through The Daily Grace Co. app is a wonderful bonus, offering videos, Scripture, and community that enhance the experience. Whether this is your first time observing Lent or a long-held rhythm, Clinging to the Cross meets you with grace, depth, and truth.
If you’re longing for a Lent study that is theologically rich, yet gentle, and deeply hopeful, this one is a gift. It doesn’t just teach us about the cross—it teaches how to cling to it, day by day.
