Tara explores the significance of the Lenten season starting with Ash Wednesday. She encourages listeners to incorporate new spiritual practices like fasting, prayer, and giving, rather than just giving up something. Drawing from Isaiah 55, Sister Joan Chittister, and the 'Stop, Look, Go' gratitude technique, Tara discusses how Lent can be a transformative period. She also introduces a free Lenten guidebook and shares a litany for Transfiguration Sunday. Tara invites you to join her in this sacred, but never stuffy, Lenten adventure.
Join Tara for a free online discussion about wholehearted living on Sunday, August 24 at 6 pm EST.
