Ready-To-Download Lent Music & Liturgy
Now, more than ever we need Lenten resources that don’t shy away from what’s going on in the world around us, that center opportunities to honestly share sorrows and griefs, that invite genuine participation and lay the groundwork for gratitude, hope, even joy.
Those are the kind of Lent resources you’ll find on our site, including downloadable sheet music, lyric videos, liturgies, spoken word pieces and guided lament experiences with music and visuals.
Series Theme: Unbroken: A Living Faith
When so many people identify themselves as Christian how can we spend some time thinking deeply about what we really believe? What is the what? What are the foundational beliefs and how are they living and moving with us as we change and grow?
Faith is passed down from generation to generation - it’s an unbroken line of ancestry that connects us all the way back to Jesus. The powers of the world wanted to break Jesus and yet this faith that we rest on is strong enough that they couldn’t do it. We are a part of this great tradition that will not and cannot be broken.
Using the seven teachings from the emerging work of A Living Catechism, through worship and practice, this Lent, explore how we are and always have been both/and people:
Packed with thoughtfully designed resources, Lent in a Box 2025 equips you to guide your congregation through this season with creativity and purpose. Inside this digital collection, you’ll find:
Whether you're planning for worship, small groups, or family devotions, this resource is designed to fit seamlessly into your ministry.
Bread of Life reminds us there is abundance—more than enough love, grace, and hope for all. If you are weary, lonely, or burdened, come to the table and be fed.
This Lent, gather together to break bread, savor the divine generosity of God, and rise to share with the world out of the abundance we have received from the bread of life.

Film Meditations for the Season of Lent and Easter from The Work of the People
This series, inspired by the Narrative Lectionary (Year 3), allows the Gospel of Luke to guide us through Lent. Beginning with Jesus setting his face toward Jerusalem (Luke 9:51), the series flows through several familiar stories—the Good Samaritan, Mary and Martha, the fruitless fig tree, the Lost Sheep, Zacchaeus, and more.
This series is an invitation to navigate the polarities in our lives with more faith, intention, and openness to be transformed. Each weekly sub-theme explores two supposed binaries, like “faith & works” or “rest & growth,” or “grief and hope.” We often consider these ideas to be opposing. However, as we explore these concepts within the scriptures, we find nuance and complexity. We might find that God is present in between.

This Sanctified Art series focuses on the life and faith of Peter, in whom we see a person who is both steadfast and unsteady, a dear friend and a betrayer, a follower and a wanderer. In Peter, we often see ourselves. By following Peter’s journey, we watch the story of Jesus unfold through the eyes of a very normal human trying to figure it all out just like us.

On Not Taking Lent out on Our Bodies
By Jodi Belcher (she/her/hers) in Building Faith on Feb 07, 2023
Free Resource from Rev. Micahel Mulberry (UCC): Ash Wednesday to Earth Day Source Book available HERE.
Central to the Lenten study are three actions:
1) Ash Wednesday Action (February 22): call a fast from credit cards held by the four major banks funding fossil fuels/climate disaster: includes links to Stop the Money Pipeline materials for talking to branch managers. Sarah Lasoff, rabbi in a Florida Jewish synagogue in Florida who has spoken to over 13 bank managers provides training materials. The credit card fast lasts until Tuesday, March 21st.
2) Dis-credit Bad Banks Day of Action put forward by Third Act Day on March 21st. Again, an invitation to talk to bank managers seeking transformation. We model persistence and relationships.
3) Finally, with the possibility of no action, there is a Foot-Washing Liturgy and Jericho Walk that can be done on Maundy Thursday (April 6th) or on Earth Day, (April 22nd).
Within the pages are also creation centered Lectio Divina and examen and creation music playlists. I also included within the folder creation-centered baptism and communion liturgy.
Please let Mike know if you use it (mmulberry@gmail.com ) and/or with any questions.
