Finding Life: From Eden to Gethsemane -- The Garden Restored

Days for Deeper Devotion

by Jane Rubietta

Forty Days of Deeper Devotion through Lent The life lost in Eden is found through Gethsemane. Follow author Jane Rubietta on her daily journey through Lent as she traces the way that God the Son traverses with his people - a path that leads from the exile and death represented by the garden of Eden, to resurrection life like it is meant to be, occasioned by what began in the gospel's garden of Gethsemane. Significantly, Jesus' ministry sometimes took place in garden settings: not only did he come because of what had been lost in Eden, but Jesus met with his disciples in a garden, he prayed in a garden, he was arrested violently in a garden, and he was buried in a garden tomb. Part anecdotal, part personal, totally scriptural, Jane leads her devotional readers through the forty days of Lent with her trademark vulnerability and picturesque prose, providing in each devotion not only a good, deep read, but solid teaching and life application.

Every book I read from Jane is a treasure ... and especially an inspiration. I had one very special day with this book, thinking about shame, and reaching beyond my own shame. I always find myself especially blessed as I read through her books and do the suggested thinking and activity.
