As Promise Glen prepares for the Easter season, one woman discovers that forgiveness is freedom—and maybe forever after. Anna Stoltzfus lives a quiet but fulfilling life in Promise Glen. Though she lost her beloved brother in a tragic accident, her family is supportive and close-knit, and her job as a cherished teacher at the Orchard Hill Amish School fills her heart with joy each day. Anna knows one day she’ll find someone she can love and marry, but she’s perfectly happy with the life she created. Anna’s comfort is quickly dashed, however, when the man Anna deemed responsible for James’s death returns to the Amish community—Matthew King. Forgiveness is at the heart of being Amish, and no one else blames Matthew; his grief and pain over losing his dear friend are obvious. Still, no matter how she tries, Anna can’t let go of the reckless night that ended her brother’s life so soon. The ache had been more tolerable after Matthew left Promise Glen, but now, not only has he returned, Anna’s father accepts his offer to work on their farm. As the preparation for Easter begins, Anna’s regular contact with Matthew introduces her to a man far different than the boy she knew before. Perhaps the season of solemn reflection and joyous remembrance might be exactly what they both need to find forgiveness for the past for a hopeful future…

The promise of Easter and spring is new life: rebirth after death, light after darkness, growth after dormancy, and movement after stillness. In the Christian Church calendar, the season of Lent precedes Easter. It is a time of remembering the anguish, pain, hostility, and death that leads to resurrected life. It is the season for releasing what doesn't work in order to make room for the new to be born. In forty meditations (one for each day of Lent) exploring the symbolic truths of scriptures from The Holy Bible, Jungian Analyst Kathleen Wiley invites you on a journey through the dark, unknown aspects of your self to the larger whole of God Within where you find new life.

Lent is a time of remembering Christ’s sacrifice—and yet it is not meant to be depressing; it is meant to be reorienting. The 40-day holy season is one of transition when we turn our eyes away from fading disappointments and move ever closer to the radiance of Easter hope. This is the purpose of The Promise of Lent Devotional: to stir up the hope that God has given us in the midst of a fallen world. Each day you’ll read of death and new life, temptation and the power to overcome it, the life and ministry of Jesus, and the transformative power of God. Because when we gaze at God’s true nature—his sacrificial love and his glorious resurrection—everything changes. The past fades, the tomb’s stone rolls away, and our hearts awaken to faith once again. Discover that to be true this year, through The Promise of Lent Devotional.

See 2,000-year-old tombs, much like the one that so temporarily held Jesus. Experience a dramatic plunge into the vibrant history and culture of Israel.

Using his knowledge of ancient customs, Vander Laan probes the true depth of the Easter story as it begins 2,000 years earlier with a simple promise between a man called Abraham and Almighty God. God's keeping of that promise reveals a beautifully intricate masterpiece of love for humankind, love fully realized centuries later in Jesus' resurrection and his gift of eternal life. After viewing this video, the celebration of Easter will forever be a time of deeper, richer joy for you and your family.
