Free Lent readings from IVP

This year, IVP are making forty extracts from their books available online to help make the most of Lent. You can log on to ivpbooks.com/Lent to get a daily dose of encouragement. IVP say:
Lent is traditionally a time when Christians are encouraged to prepare themselves, through prayer and reflection, to celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus at Easter. Getting a renewed and deepened awareness of humanity's status before God helps believers to appreciate more fully the amazing work of salvation that Jesus accomplished on the cross.

However you plan to keep Lent this year, IVP would like to offer you the opportunity to be encouraged each day with a brief passage from one of our books. There are no strings and no cost, although if you do find any passage particularly helpful, you'll be able to order the book it comes from in just a few clicks. It is our hope that you will be challenged and inspired by these readings. And please feel free to pass on the news to anyone you think would benefit from a little daily encouragement.
