Description
Have an edifying Lent of 2024 with daily meditations for Lent from the famous French orator, Bishop Jacques-Benigne Bossuet.As ash settles on our foreheads, we are reminded of our mortality and the spiritual quest that defines the Lenten season. We consider life as a pilgrimage, tracing our steps alongside Jesus's teachings during Lent and understanding how each of us is beckoned to join Him on the path to the Father. Through stories and insights, we draw parallels to the Israelites' exodus, seeing our Christian journey as one of faith and ongoing transformation. We are pilgrims, after all, and it's time to consciously prepare our hearts for the journey towards our final destination with Christ.The second part of our contemplation dives into the heart of Lent—detachment from the world and its fleeting pleasures. It's a time to break free from the chains that bind us, challenging ourselves to go beyond just the required fasting and abstinence. This is not just a call to minimal observance but an encouragement to use this sacred period as a crucible for deep prayer and meaningful detachment from worldly things.Support the show********************************************************https://www.avoidingbabylon.comLocals Community: https://avoidingbabylon.locals.comRSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssSpiritusTV: https://spiritustv.com/@avoidingbabylonRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1626455Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AvoidingBabylon
