Aprašymas

The Francis of Assisi Spiritual Practices series utilizes New City's groundbreaking and now complete Francis of Assisi: Early Documents, Volumes 1-4 to offer readers of all backgrounds inspiring, encouraging, and challenging entry-points to the essential issues of a Christian life. Each book in the series should appeal to readers who desire to walk the Way of Saint Francis with relevance to his life, writings, and legacy.

Saint Francis and the Way of Lent offers a four-week format designed for both individual and group use. Each week, or chapter, focuses on a Lenten theme:

Week 1: Lent as a Balanced Way of Life

Week 2: The Lost Art of Compunction

Week 3: Spending Time Alone

Week 4: Imitating Christ

Short introductions are written by the editor and designed to preface selections from the primary texts, and these are followed by questions for discussion or reflection. There are six readings for each week, followed by prayers of intention and spiritual practice suggestions for that week on that theme.
