40 Days
Lent began last week and I have a list of things that I'm pursuing during lent. Why? It all began when I picked up a copy of the Compass and was confronted with the Pope's Lenten message: "Lent teaches us to love Christ in an ever more radical way." Most days, I don't feel that way about God.
