In the same way that Jesus felt compelled to go off into the desert to prepare for his ministry, we too sometimes need to go into a desert place to be with God and face up to what our relationship with him is really like and, perhaps, where it is going. Lent is a wonderful oppor­tunity for deepening our friend­ship with God and our commit­ment to work­ing in par­tnership with him dur­ing the lifetime we are given

. Journey into the Desert is a Lent course which aims to provide the reader - whether studying indivi­dually or as part of a group - with a journey and pattern for prayer which will deepen, renew and refresh their faith. There are five chapters, repre­sen­t­ing the five weeks of Lent. Each chapter contains narrative, a selec­tion of scriptures, reflections and a prayer.
