Lent is also about what we can give

These 40 days between Ash Wednesday and Maundy Thursday are a commemoration of the time Jesus spent fasting in the desert before the beginning of His public ministry, in which He endured temptations by the devil.
Always hate the sin, love the sinner
Christianity has been misunderstood as it pertains to its attitude towards sin. I realize there are spokespersons for the faith that don't always speak correctly when representing it.

Preparing for season of reflection, sacrifice
Another Lent season is under way. The 2013 season, a 40-day period before Easter, commenced Feb. 13 on Ash Wednesday. During this period, Sundays are not counted because Sundays commemorate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It will culminate March 30, the day before Easter. A time of intensive soul-searching, repentance and reflection, Lent is celebrated around the world as people take inventory of their lives and try to get a closer relationship with God. By ...

Why not let God restore your soul?

Seek the word of the Lord
Last week, we began looking at the idea of putting our faith in God. Some people have a problem with this, for they trust only in themselves.
