Suggested Lent Reading
Lent is the greatest season of the year for reflection. Those days and weeks from Ash Wednesday until the Day of Easter are set aside to think carefully about our lives in Christ, with God and the Holy Spirit within us. For many, some time is found each day to sit quietly with a new book, or indeed and old one. But what to read.
