Lent: Week One - Intermountain Catholic

Lent: Week One Intermountain Catholic As part of my Lenten prayer, I took time to reflect on the Gospel reading for the first Sunday of Lent, which was the four verses of Mk 1:12-15. What immediately struck me was the last line, “Repent, and believe in the gospel.” I’ve heard this admonition often enough over the years, but for the first time it occurred to me to wonder whether Jesus’ audience would have understood the word “gospel.” We Catholics understand “gospel” to mean the four books of the Bible written by the four evangelists. More broadly, we call the gospel the Good News that the Kingdom of God is at hand. In the verses quoted above, just before he called for repentance Jesus proclaimed the Good News: “This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”

What Utahns can give up for Lent in a year of so much sacrifice

| Updated: 3:26 p.m. It’s that time of year when many Christians declare that they are giving up sugar, soda, snacking, swearing or social media. Or maybe, they choose to forgo chocolate, beer or fast food. These are typical sacrifices for Lent, the 40-day period before Easter that symbolically connects to Christ’s fasting 40 days in the wilderness and his journey to the cross. This time around, though, many wonder: Haven’t we given up enough during this COVID-19 pandemic? This past year of global suffering adds a new poignancy and depth to the practice of what Christians see as a time for discipline and penance.
