THE HUMAN SIDE OF LENT BEGINS AS JESUS JOURNEYS TOWARD JERUSALEM... Have you ever wondered what happens before Jesus rides a donkey into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday? Roy Goble has. In his signature style-authentic, thought-provoking, and funny-he tells the story of Jesus's epic Lent road trip that ultimately leads to the first Easter. Jesus, with his disciples in tow, gathers an entourage, gets lost, heals people, feuds with Pharisees, and surprisingly proves to be the world's worst dinner guest. And when he finally arrives in Jerusalem, he reunites with an old four-legged friend before the fateful events of Holy Week unfold. These 40 daily devotions each celebrate the human, humorous, and sometimes messy aspects of the story we think we already know, helping us discover the lasting hope at the heart of Lent and Easter. "There is something disconcerting about facing our humanness-and that is exactly where Junkyard Wisdom Lent takes us. Roy excels at discovering the human side of the story without forgetting the divine. He invites us to walk with Jesus in a hopeful, humorous, and gritty way." J. DEREK MCNEIL, PRESIDENT AND PROVOST, SEATTLE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY AND PSYCHOLOGY "These short devotions are meaningful and practical. I love the questions after each devotion." MICHAELA O'DONNELL, MAX DE PREE CENTER FOR LEADERSHIP "Roy's theology is subversive in the best possible way. Junkyard Wisdom Lent is an engaging, yet deeply meaningful, spiritual exploration." KEN WYTSMA AUTHOR OF THE GRAND PARADOX AND PURSUING JUSTICE Junkyard Wisdom Lent takes readers on a refreshingly human and often humorous walk through the season of Lent. In forty short, story-driven devotions, Roy Goble reimagines Jesus's journey to Jerusalem as a gritty, heartfelt road trip filled with real people, messy moments, and unexpected grace. With his trademark blend of honesty, wit, and warmth, Goble helps readers see the divine story through a deeply human lens. Far from a traditional devotional, Junkyard Wisdom Lent invites you to rethink familiar scriptures, laugh along the way, and find hope in the ordinary. Each reflection pairs scripture with engaging storytelling and thoughtful questions, encouraging a faith that's authentic, curious, and alive. It's an invitation to journey with Jesus-not just to the cross, but toward renewed joy and understanding this Easter.
