The Winter Lectionary
This year at TVC, we’re experimenting with an annual rhythm that leans into the seasons, marking each with a shared group practice. The theme for Winter is ‘growing’ — a season of personal formation and devotion, with the aim of nourishing our spiritual life.
One of the greatest assets we have in our spiritual growth is one another — the community of faith who ‘spur one another on toward love and good deeds’ (Hebrews 10:24). The Winter Lectionary is designed to keep us connected in a slower season of life, while helping us learn from each other’s experience.
The premise is simple: members of the TVC community have each written a 200-word devotion responding to the prompt, “What is one scripture that has shaped the way you live?” Over the middle of Winter, you’ll receive a devotion in your inbox each weekday morning to carry with you through the day, along with one simple, actionable practice to try.
Over the course of 5 weeks, our prayer is that we will collectively grow in faith and action, shaped by scripture and our shared faith journey.
