"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." Matthew 5:6 How do we hunger for righteousness? Readers are given a fresh opportunity to reconsider the words of scripture and liturgy from a modern perspective as they explore the familiar traditions and practices of Lent, Holy Week, and Easter. Farag Mikhail presents stories of modern and ancient Christian heroes - some familiar, others less well-known - who come alive in a contemporary and relatable way, as readers prepare for, and participate in the spiritual practices of Lent.
