A Trustworthy Guide To Lent: Ash Wednesday And The Lenten Journey: Lenten Practice Guidelines

The church season of Lent is marked by the bookends of Ash Wednesday on one side and Easter on the other. Lent gives Christians the opportunity to prepare for the gifts and glory of Easter by reflecting on our need for God's salvation and restoration. As humans created by God, we are finite and fallible; yet God loves, saves, and restores us. Recognizing the limitations of human existence alongside the amazing grace of God in Jesus Christ enhances the meaning and significance of Easter as the day we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus.

We invite you to join Christians around the world in observing the ancient tradition of Lent-40 days of preparing to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Lent is for all Christians, and this book is your guide on the journey from Ash Wednesday through Holy Week to Easter Sunday.
