New Lent Sermon Series for 2026

Ash Wednesday is Feb 18, 2026. Get ahead of your Lent sermon planning by using a TPW sermon series.

This year's sermon series, At the Mercy of the Mercy of Christ offers guides for Ash Wednesday and all 6 Sundays in Lent (including Palm Sunday) that help you to lead your congregation on a pilgrimage exploring repentance, mercy, and the call to imitate Christ in our lives.

Each guide focuses on a main Scripture text and has original commentary, sermon resources, and liturgy — an all-in-one kit for prepping for Sunday morning.

This year's series is compatible with the Revised Common Lectionary Year A.

Sermon series are included with the Complete Package subscription. Consider a 14-day free trial to see if TPW is right for your ministry.
