A Bible Reading Guide for Lent
The season of Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, March 5. Lent is comprised of the 40 days before Easter, not coun ng the Sundays (each Sunday, throughout the year, is considered to be a “mini‐Easter,” a celebra on of Jesus' victory over sin and death). Lent is a season of reflec on on the gi to us of Jesus Christ and our need for Christ’s sacrifice for us and all people. Within this reading guide a scripture lesson is suggested for each day and focuses on the person, work, or teaching of Jesus Christ. For each lesson there is a brief summa on of the lesson’s message and some suggested ques ons for how we might personally connect with the passage. The scripture lesson for each of the Sundays, those “mini‐Easters,” is a Psalm of praise.
