We are planning a WonderCafe Lenten devotional book study, starting on Ash Wednesday, Feb. 22. This will be similar to last year's Lenten book study, with daily reflections and discussion questions.

It's interesting that I could catalogue each of my failures. I'm keenly aware of the times I've comprimised, forgotten, or otherwise done something that would have warranted a pater noster or rosary in years gone by. Does Lent have this effect on anyone else? I'm interested to know how people deal with Lent. Is it a 'Challenge' something akin to a diet or contest where we pit ourselves up against a standard or ideal we set for ourselves and then feel discouraged when we fail to meet that standard?
The association between religious communities and food has been noticed widely. The Christian church almost has more in common across it's denominations with regards to culinary traditions than theology. We believe vastly disparate things and yet there is not a congregation you can find without some tradition of pot-luck, post-worship meal, or monthly fellowship get together. I find it intensely interesting when rituals unite us where ideas cannot. Perhaps inter-necine arguments should be held around circular tables with bread and a warm hearty meal...
Welcome to Week 3 of WonderCafe's on-line Lenten discussion. The theme of this week is "Image of the Invisible: Healing Soul." Below is the synopsis and suggested discussion questions from Rising with the Morning Star. Peace.
