We all feel like we are in the wilderness at times.  Life’s up and downs can be isolating, lonely, exhausting and sometimes can make us question our faith.  As we travel through the 40 days of Lent we will see how Jesus met with people in the midst of challenges, how he comforted those facing despair, and how he was able to reveal hope, true hope that has the power to carry us through even the hard places of life.
