Living into Lent
By Donald K. McKim
The Lenten journey is a shared journey—Christians join with others along the way of faith, following Jesus, and seeking to live out the will and purposes of God. Living into Lent, written by noted theologian, educator, and author Donald K. McKim, allows time during the Lenten season for readers to reflect on their Christian identities, listen to God’s Word and will, and engage in practices that deepen the Christian experience through discipleship. Whether used for congregational study or personal reflection, each reading features Scripture, devotion, theological quote, a response, and prayer. Theological quotes, drawn from the history of the Reformed church, will help readers better understand God's Word and its implications for the Lenten journey. Readings are enhanced by a six-session study guide and questions for consideration.

About Witherspoon Press
Witherspoon Press, a publishing imprint of Congregational Ministries Publishing, was established in 1997 to help further the mission of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) by providing resources that nurture, affirm, challenge and celebrate the human spirit.
We take our name from John Witherspoon, one of the founders of the Presbyterian Church in America and moderator of its first General Assembly in 1789. In addition to his leadership in the Presbyterian Church, Witherspoon was also president of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University), a member of the New Jersey state legislature and the Continental Congress and the only member of the clergy to sign the Declaration of Independence.
Like John Witherspoon, everything we do remains grounded in the wonderfully rich Presbyterian and Reformed tradition that has shaped so much of the life of our culture.
