Over the next 40 days, we will travel through the Bible together and pray through different verses. I have provided passages for you to pray through, and given a sample prayer to get you started. Your prayers don't have to look exactly like my prayers. In fact, I would say they probably won't. That's okay! Our goal is to get to know God better and to get more comfortable with praying through His Word. Each of the 40 days is leading us through a day of Lent, and *spoiler alert* we will finish with the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus. If you happen to find this podcast and it is not Lent, or if you happen to get off track during the Lenten season, no worries. Because of Christ's crucifixion and resurrection, we get to have a personal relationship with God and are not bound by dates in a book or on a calendar. We don't have to work our way into His good graces, and we can experience true and lasting joy as a result. The episodes will start on March 2 and will run through Easter, April 17th.
