The season of Lent begins today, and you may be wondering, "What is Lent and why does it matter?" I'm answering your questions about Lent this week with my colleague Maggie, including: What's the purpose of fasting and how can I practice it? How can I observe Lent non-legalistically? What's the significance of Ash Wednesday? ... and more! Whether you've observed Lent before or not, I think you'll find this discussion insightful!
