It’s Ash Wednesday again, and time to begin Lent. Like last year I plan to read a number of books on religious themes throughout Lent. Unlike last year, I will post the book reviews as I go along instead of just one big post at the end of Lent.
I have some other plans of fasting, prayer and charity for Lent I’m keeping between me and God for now, but here are some interesting links for Lent:
- 40 Days 40 Ways to reduce poverty in America (Campaign to Reduce Poverty in America, 2/6/08)
- 25 Great Things You Can Do For Lent…besides giving up chocolate compiled by Renée LaReau (BustedHalo)
- On Loving Lent By Jane L. Wiesman (America, 3/30/85)
Here’s hoping and praying that Lent is good for all!

The Friday after Ash Wednesday reading is a particularly powerful statement on fasting:
– Isaiah 58:6-7
