Ashes to Easter: Lenten Meditations

Rating:
Summary: Meditations for the Lenten season
Review: This daily guide for meditations through Lent begins with a Gospel reading for the day, followed by a commentary by Bishop Morneau related to that reading. The feature which raises this book above similar ones is the inclusion of a spiritual poem by poets such as Jessica Powers and George Herbert. The day's section closes with questions to guide personal study on the theme of the Gospel, and a prayer for the day. I have found "Ashes to Easter" to be a wonderful guide for increased spiritual awareness through Lent, and I look forward to rereading it each year.
