Keeping Lent Simple with Claire and Mike Couche of Finding Philothea Ave Explores

    • Christianity

Do you ever have BIG plans for Lent, only to feel overwhelmed as the weeks go on?


Claire and Mike Couche, founders of Finding Philothea, share how embracing simplicity—through carving out time for prayer, focusing on small acts of fasting, and learning generosity through acts of service—can wield greater impact than grand gestures of repentance and self-denial. When we complicate Lent, our practices can muddy the waters and make this time of prayerful rest overly stressful. When we keep Lent simple, however, we can see that it’s a time to prepare us for Heaven.


We would love it if you could leave a written review on Apple and share with your friends!
