I have for the past several Lents 'given up' fiction and that is my plan again this year. I tend to make a book list and then let the mood take me, but here is some of what I hope to read this Lent.
The Reckless Way of Love: Notes on Following Jesus by Dorothy Day; a buddy read hosted by Fountain of Carrots that I'm joining.
Quiet Companion by Mary Purcell a biography of St. Peter Favre one of the founding members of Jesuits.
We Are Our Mothers' Daughters by Cookie Roberts
Six Sacred Rules by Tim & Sue Muldoon
The Benedict Option by Rod Dresher
Make My Life Simple by Rachel Balducci
My devotional for this lent is No Unlikely Saints offered by Brick House in the City.
And being released on March 12th Be Bold in the Broken by Mary Lenaburg.
What are you reading this Lent?
Linking up with Rosie of A Blog for my Mom
This looks like a great list! I don't think I've read any of those, looking forward to hearing how you like them.
ReplyDeleteThese all look great. I just began reading Pope Benedict XVI's book A School of Prayer: The Saints Show Us How to Pray, which is already full of rich gems just in the first two short chapters.
