Lent’s Goal

Lenten practices—fasting; deeper praying; almsgiving—are not ends in themselves. They are helps to open to transformation and to something countercultural: “accepting failure.” In Lent’s opening days Jesuit Brendan Busse considered that. As Lent progresses Jesus’ story keeps inviting Christians to that exercise.
