The Real Meaning of Lent

We are entering Lent, a time of self-denial and penance. It can be easy to see this period largely as a time of greater discipline, of sacrifice, of making myself the best version of myself that I can possibly be. But let us remember what Lent is really about: Looking to Christ crucified, Jesus on the Cross, so we come to understand better the love Christ has shown for us. A meditation by Father John Agnew.
