Our guide to the new Lent Bible Study Guides and Courses for 2024.
There just aren’t enough chances to slow down.
Back in school, teachers would tell us to “take your time” on tricky problems. But, in the adult world, we no longer have someone telling us to “take your time” - though we never stopped needing it, did we? The demands of life take all our time for us.
This makes Lent courses the perfect opportunity to step back and invest in your relationship with God.
For six weeks, through fasting and reflection, Christians around the world keep in mind what Christ’s death and resurrection mean. This year, Lent starts on the 14th of February 2024 (yes, Valentine's Day!).
If you are feeling spent, Lent studies and Lent courses are a chance for you to ease off the accelerator and take your time in God’s presence. Each lent Bible study offers the chance to explore faith and life, whether as a group or on your own.
Here are our picks of the best new Lent resources for 2024:

A Truth Universally Acknowledged: 40 Days With Jane Austen by Rachel Mann
Jane Austen – novelist, forthright letter writer, daughter and sister of Anglican clergy – had a rarely-matched insight into human character. Like Lent itself, she exposes frailty, caprice and pomposity without losing a profound and compassionate understanding of human nature. Her life was profoundly shaped by the church and Christian spirituality, making her writings an ideal accompaniment for the 40 days of Lent.

The Church of England’s Lent theme for 2024, Watch and Pray invites us all to wait expectantly for God to meet us and sustain us through the storms and trials we all face.
