In this “Space for God” devotional, Rev. Skip Ryan guides us into a fresh encounter with the Beatitudes as a way of cultivating the right headspace and heart space for Lent.  We hope you’ll find somewhere comfy, grab a Bible, open it up to Matthew 5, and sit back as Skip draws on his decades of experience following Jesus through good times and bad to help us prepare for Lent and encounter a very compassionate Jesus.
