Took me a little longer to finish this one beyond the Easter season. I have previously read "Watch for the Light" which is for the Advent season. I enjoyed it so much that I was thrilled to learn there was a Lenten edition. While this one is much lengthier than its Advent counterpart, the selection of writings is still top notch and made for wonderful devotional reading for Lent and Easter this year.

A daily devotional for the season of Lent. Wonderful authors....a must have for any literary Christian.

You can’t go wrong with this collection of writers all bound up in one volume of focused thoughts on the resurrection of Christ! Many of my favorites and many writers I had never heard of with the same caliber of being able to bring truth out like a good punch to the gut of my comfortable, comfort-seeking Christianity. I need these voices in my life and they are well gathered here. Great for reading during Lent and throughout the year!

Not as well done as the advent volume; not as many of the classic writings inspired me and a few were very worldview-specific, but altogether not bad.

I read the Christmas edition of this book back during the Advent season, and loved it. This one was no exception -- it's such a fantastic collection of short writings from MANY acclaimed Christian writers, speakers, and thinkers. I loved the progression of the pieces throughout the Lent season, and loved that it didn't just end on Easter Sunday but continued for a few weeks beyond. This is an excellent companion to any Lent study or just as a standalone book to read throughout the season as well! Highly recommend these.
