Friend of Sinners

Friend of Sinners by Elyse Fitzpatrick presents wonderful Lent devotions on following the crucified King.

Christ Our Companion

This book of 43 devotions is designed to help prepare your heart for Easter. It encourages you to fully engage the Lenten season by spending daily time reflecting on Christ as our companion. Along the way, you are invited to slow down, reflect deeply, and see that Jesus is beautiful and worth befriending.

These brief meditations highlight the tension woven throughout Christ’s life and ministry. Jesus lived among sinners and met them in their brokenness, yet He did so with compassion, patience, and care.

God’s Grace in Christ

Fitzpatrick writes with honesty and warmth, using relatable, conversational stories that point us back to our constant need for grace. In fact, it shows how God’s grace is given to us in Christ. This devotional will stir your imagination, strengthen your faith, and gently soften your heart.

In the end, this book shows that following Christ is a path marked by death—but it is a death that leads to true life, and to Life Himself.
