Walking the Journey of Lent
Reflections on the Scriptures for Cycle A
Richard Gribble

Ideal for groups and individuals, this Lenten study can be a great way to reflect upon the scriptures and prepare ourselves for the celebration of Easter.

Like anything else worth having or achieving, this journey will require some effort, but it's an enjoyable effort. In sharing with others, and allowing God's spirit to flow through us, we can come to greater insights as to what the scriptures might mean for us and, most importantly, how we can apply them to our lives.

Through his use of real-life stories, engaging reflections, thought-provoking discussion questions, and opening and concluding prayers for each week, Gribble leads us to the conclusion of Lent where Jesus unchains us from the bondage of sin and we find the glory to which suffering leads us. We are now prepared to celebrate Easter Sunday as new creations in Christ. Gribble’s book, used by parish groups or for personal prayer and reflection, will enhance the Lenten spiritual journey of anyone seeking healing and new life in the risen Christ.
