Outstandingly honest and helpful。 This book is like a loving， compassionate nudge guiding you to Jesus for help during your Lenten journey。Thanks a lot to Ave Maria Press for giving me the ARC。Joyce Rupp is an incredible writer， and the text was easy to read and enjoyable。 She focused on the reality of life and gave us appropriate advice with the help of Jesus while we looked at his acts and words。 Every day we get to look at a Bible passage， and the author writes about how it applies to us and Outstandingly honest and helpful。 This book is like a loving， compassionate nudge guiding you to Jesus for help during your Lenten journey。Thanks a lot to Ave Maria Press for giving me the ARC。Joyce Rupp is an incredible writer， and the text was easy to read and enjoyable。 She focused on the reality of life and gave us appropriate advice with the help of Jesus while we looked at his acts and words。 Every day we get to look at a Bible passage， and the author writes about how it applies to us and how we can learn from it， adding her own experiences。 The day ends with a prayer and a "Today:" task。 It was so pleasant to read that I am looking forward to her other works。 The book is worth reading it again and again， even outside of Lent。Would I recommend the book？ Yes， I would， and here is to whom:Everyone should read this book。 We are all in this world together， and while we may not face the same issues， we are guaranteed to have at least one of the struggles mentioned。 This book helps to get a better view of it and how to handle it healthily， to help ourselves and others。I even recommend this to people that aren't religious or spiritual。 This book is excellent guidance to feel better with the help of Jesus， and he is there for everyone。 Even those who do not believe in him， making this book a versatile piece to overcome hardships。I recommend this book to people who don't read much or don't read at all。 Only reading the bible passage， prayer， or "Today:" task can do a lot。 Still， the writing is accessible and not overly complicated， so giving every word a chance to move you shouldn't be too difficult。 。。。more
