Lent : a brief history and a simple discipline
This episode was sparked by a meme I kept encountering on the internet.
I answer questions like: When did Lent start? Why is it 40 days? Why do people give up things for Lent?
And, the i offer a suggestion for a Lenten habit, and you don't even have to give anything up!
