February 21st is the begin of Lent
(Ash Wednesday). Lent is a season of preparation leading up to
Easter. It is the forty days plus the six Sundays before Easter.
For centuries, it has been observed as a special time of self examination
and penitence. This year during Lent we will be studying the verse in
the Gospel of John that reads: So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
(John 8:31-32). The question we will ask ourselves is this:
"Am I continuing in Jesus' words"?
