Greg Wasinski - Faith and Real Life Podcast"Letting Go" Lent Series - Holy Week - FearWeekly Theme: Letting Go of Fear and Trusting God's Victory Holy Week brings us face to face with fear. Fear of loss. Fear of suffering. Fear of uncertainty. But the journey of Christ shows us something greater — that fear does not have the final word. God does.

Greg Wasinski - Faith and Real Life Podcast"Letting Go" Lent Series - Second Sunday - Expectations SUMMARY: Following Jesus is not a half-hearted "I'm in." It is surrendering our expectations to His design. This week challenges us to release the version of faith we've imagined and trust the glory God wants to reveal — even when it unfolds differently than we expected. RELATED SCRIPTURES: First Reading: Genesis 12:1-4 "Go forth from the land of your kinsfolk…" Faith requires movement before clarity. Second Reading: 2Timothy 1:8-10 "He saved us and called us to a holy life, not according to our works but...

Greg Wasinski - Faith and Real Life Podcast"Letting Go" Lent Series - IntroductionLent is not simply about giving something up — it is about choosing life. In this series, we reflect on how the readings call us to let go of what is false, harmful, or spiritually distracting so that we can grow closer to Christ. God has given us the freedom to choose between life and death, good and evil. When we release what weighs us down — excuses, compromise, fear, or sin — we open our hearts to receive something far more beautiful in return. Lent becomes not just a season of temporary sacrifice, but the starting point of lasting transformation. Let...
