Our Lent: Things We Carry: A 40-Day Lenten devotional for individual spiritual reflection or small-group discussion

by David Crumm

Two billion Christians observe Lent each year, looking prayerfully toward Easter. But, as Christians, we often focus on on our own busy lives and overlook many of the things Jesus was teaching us in his final journey to Jerusalem."Our Lent" is a 40-chapter journey with Jesus, written by award-winning Religion Writer David Crumm, that pauses each day to explore the enduring power of the things Jesus showed us, many of them quite coins, basins, bowls, bread, cups, swords and tables, to name a few.
