Lent: Stories and Reflections on the Daily Readings

Megan McKenna, the well known storyteller and popular author, walks with us through the forty days of Lent and Holy Week. This is an expanded edition of the best selling Lent, which included stories and reflections for the A Cycle.... showing us how to imitate Jesus, encouraging us to resist temptation and to find our strength in the Eucharist, the word of God, and prayer throughout the Lenten season. In this volume, the three-page meditations begin with Ash Wednesday and continue through Wednesday of Holy Week. The Feasts of St. Joseph and the Annunciation are also included. McKenna's stories and reflections provide practical advice to keep our feet on God's path and to accept God's challenge to us to become reconcilers and peacemakers. --- excerpt from book's back cover
