Based on Mark 15:6-16-7. 2026 Lent Theme: God's Love for Us The series theme, God's Love For Us, is based on the hymn "O Love, How Deep" (Lutheran Service Book 544). The love of Christ surpasses all knowledge, yet it is through this love that we are filled with the fullness of God (Ephesians 3:19). The hymn "O Love, How Deep," drawn from the Devotio moderna movement of the fifteenth century, opens for us a way of meditating on the life and death and life again of our Lord Jesus Christ. It connects us to how Martin Luther and many others saw the life of God, especially through the repetition of the phrase "For us."
