Lent isn't just a season of giving things up — it's an invitation into something ancient, costly, and ultimately joyful. This piece traces the spiritual logic of these forty days from the earliest Christians through to the Prayer Book we use today, and asks what it might mean for us to take that invitation seriously. If Easter is the destination, Lent is how we learn to want it.

Shrove Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday, is far more than an excuse for pancakes or parades. Its name comes from the practice of "shriving" — confessing sins and receiving absolution — reflecting the day's true purpose: spiritual preparation for the Lenten journey ahead. The tradition of feasting on rich foods before the fast is not mere indulgence, but a meaningful threshold moment, a conscious farewell to abundance before embracing simplicity and self-denial. In this way, Shrove Tuesday e...

Every Ash Wednesday, I walk out of church with a smudged cross on my forehead and inevitably catch a glimpse of myself in a car window or shop mirror. It's a strange sight — and that strangeness, I've come to believe, is exactly the point. In this piece, I dig into where this ancient practice actually comes from, what those ashes are made of (you might be surprised), and why wearing a public mark of mortality isn't the contradiction of Jesus' teachings of "in secret" it might seem to be. If you'...

On Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent, we gathered around Matthew 6 and Psalm 103 to ask a question that cuts to the heart of every spiritual discipline: why do we do what we do? Jesus warns against practicing our righteousness to be seen by others—whether in giving, praying, or fasting—because those who perform for human applause have already received their reward in full. Even the imposition of ashes, visible as it is, stands apart from that kind of hypocrisy: it is not a badge of superior d...
