Lent is a season when we remember Jesus's journey toward the cross even as we take up our own cross to follow after him. It is a season of fasting and contemplation that vitally informs our relationship with Christ and with others. Dr. Jesse C Middendorf and Rev. Stephanie Dyrness Lobdell have co-authored this daily Lenten devotional based on scriptures from the Book of Common Prayer. The words, reflection questions, and prayers offered in Lenten Postcards will inform and transform your Lenten observance so that you will emerge victorious with Christ on the day of resurrection.
