Adding for Lent?

0310270170_01__aa240_sclzzzzzzz_v4444443 Jim mentions that a few years back he gave up giving up thinks for Lent and instead added something.

I must confess that Lent is something that's rather new to me. I've been a Christian for 21 years but I was brought up very low church and Lent was soemthing that as a family or a church community we never did.

Inspired bu Jim's idea of adding things for Lent I'm going to do likewise. What I'm going to add is Sam Wells book Power and Passion. Who knows I may even get around to blogging about it?

Started reading Power & Passion in bed this morning with my Tea & Toast trying all the while not to put sticky finger marks all over the cover.

My discipline in Lent will be to put the book down and not read it all in one sitting. Lots to ponder! If you read this you will be taking up 'thinks' for Lent (forgive the play on your typo)

Graeme - Ah now I can't remove the typo! Your obviously a much faster reader than myself so there was little danger I would read the book in one sitting! Hope you get muchout of the book as you ponder.

Brodie - did you get my email about hopeful imagination lent blog? can you do any blogging? perhaps you could blog on power and passion. I'm reading it too.
