Let's be honest: Lent is a strange critter.  Some devoutly observe this seaon of forty days with dedication by giving something up, or adding a spiritual practice to their lives for this season every year.  Others are worried that it comes off as too showy or self-righteous to fast or change their habits for a season.  And for some, this season just looks like a second chance to start New Year's Resolutions, dressed up in religious garb.  What are we to make of this season and the practices that are often associated with it?  And can we see something good for our souls in the small gestures or changes we might make in our lives?  Here in this first episode of a new series for Lent, pastors Sarah, Erica, and Steve take a look at what Lent is, how we might frame the practices that often go with this season, and where we might put up some guardrails, too.  Join us as this Lenten season and series of conversations begins here on Crazy Faith Talk.
