Find a Fresh Perspective or Add a New Practice

Often Lent is thought of as a time that we give up something that is hindering our relationship with God. But, there are seasons of Lent when we feel God calling us to find a fresh perspective or add a new practice to our spiritual routines. Here are some resources to consider as we head into Lent.
