​What is Lent?

Lent is 6 and a half weeks before Easter and lasts for 40 days (excluding Sundays) just as Jesus fasted in the desert for 40 days. Read that here. 
During Lent, we are encouraged to begin a good habit, or stop a bad habit throughout the 40 days. Here are some ideas:
  • Fast as you are able during each day
  • Begin a daily Bible Study - Use a Bible App devotional, or the Forward Day by Day Podcast if you'd like
  • Write a "Thank You" card and send it every day of Lent
  • Stop smoking/drinking/swearing/cussing during Lent
  • Stop yourself from anger
  • Start complimenting everyone you talk to
Whatever you choose to do, do it with Christ in mind. Use him as your example and your guide. 
​God bless you!
