Lent is a holy season of devotion that offers wonderful opportunities for life transformation. Theologian and author Maggi Dawn unpacks the wonder of this season.
Lent is the Christian tithe. 40 days which we give back to God by intentionally drawing near to the Lord. The season of Lent is an opportunity for life-change, as we are invited to participate in special rituals and activities centered on Christ’s own preparation for death and resurrection.
Maggi Dawn knows much about this. She is the author of a book on lent called Giving It Up, and has a special place in her heart for the ways in which lent can transform lives and point them back at God. In this course, Maggi will teach us:
- Why Commemorate Lent?
- Origins of Lent
- Themes of Lent
- Practicing Lent
This course is an inspiring introduction to this holy season and is appropriate for those who are new or have spent years commemorating Lent.
