LENT - Forty Days with Our Lord...

During Lent, we contemplate our Lord's suffering and death in preparation for His glorious Resurrection on Easter morning. In this video, LCMS President Matthew C. Harrison goes verse by verse through the Gospel of Matthew's account of Jesus' forty days in the wilderness and then shares some reflections on the season of Lent.
