As we announced recently on the text.soul.culture podcast, this season we鈥檒l be introducing occasional 鈥榤inisodes鈥� to accompany our longer, more in-depth conversations. Each minisode will offer a brief snapshot of some aspect of life in community here at 天美视频.
This week, as we observe Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent, we start with a simple question: 鈥淲hat does the season of Lent mean to you?鈥� We loved the range of responses鈥攃onfusion, intrigue, gratitude, solemnity, and more鈥攁s faculty, staff, students, and alumni around our building reflected on that question.
鈥淚f Advent is preparation for Christ鈥檚 coming, is Lent preparation for Christ鈥檚 death?鈥�
We hope you enjoy this first text.soul.culture minisode, and that the responses stir your own curiosity about what this season of repentance, confession, and wilderness wandering might mean for you.
Thank you to all of those who participated by sharing their thoughts:
