Lent by Heart (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Bill Powell | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Looking for a new devotion this Lent? Learn the Gospel stories of the Passion by heart.

This unique series of short, easy memory lessons makes the memorizing simple. Every day during Lent, you'll learn one new verse of the Passion stories.

Many books offer a daily verse, but how long do you remember what you merely read? Learning these stories, verse by verse, will lift your thoughts to a new level. As you renew these stories, you'll find new meanings and images in the familiar words.

Think you have a bad memory? Impossible! You've just proven that your memory is excellent (see page 30). Lent by Heart will show you how to use your memory in new ways.

But don't worry, you won't need crazy memory tricks. Instead, you'll learn how to make the Bible come alive through expression, your imagination, and even rhythm (see page 21). With an innovative combination of simple techniques like these, you'll make these stories part of you.

Lent is meant to help us think new thoughts. But you can only think with what you remember.
