About this listen

We reflect on Lent through real life pressures and the Gospel of Lazarus, naming what keeps us spiritually numb and what it takes to come back to life. We connect the scrutiny gospels to baptism and daily conversion, then challenge ourselves to stop excusing sin and start moving the stone with Christ.
• Lent as humble offering rather than perfection
• The scrutiny gospels and how they point to baptism
• Living water and the question of what we truly thirst for
• Spiritual blindness and patterns that keep us stuck
• Lazarus and the stones that block new life
• Common stones like pride, ego, fear, anxiety, control, and lack of trust
• Small sins that destroy the soul over time, especially gossip and judging
• The lie of “this is just how I am” and the call to real change
• Justice and mercy together, plus the real consequences of sin
• Confession as a doorway to freedom and a clear conscience
• Community and accountability as essential for growth
• Daily prayer and examination of conscience as ongoing conversion
