Lent is upon us. Lots of people give something up for lent, I can't help but wonder if this just confirms those outside the church in their view that Christianity is all about denying yourself, missing out on the good things.
Instead why don't we use lent positively and take something extra up. I'm going to try for the next forty days, starting tomorrow to have an extra Bible reading and reflection slot in my day. Its got to be better for me than giving up chocolate or crisps or whatever.
I'll post what I am reading each day and 2 readings worth on a Friday as I try not to blog on Saturday as its family day. Why not join me dwelling on what Christ has done for us?
