Author Description

Based on the daily Scripture readings, these insightful reflections for each day of Lent by Sr. Rea McDonnell take readers on their own forty-day journey in the desert--a journey in which we are brought back to the water of baptism that washed away our original sin. McDonnell points out in each daily reflection that by immersing ourselves in the compassion and forgiveness of Christ, we are brought closer to the Spirit.
