BRF's Lent Book for 2021
Opening Our Lives explores how we can open up to God's Kingdom
You'll find practical insights from the Bible in this engaging guide
Anna Hockley
Eden Christian Books Specialist
Lent is not about giving up or taking up, but a radical opening up: the opening up of our lives to God’s transformative kingdom.
That is the challenge Trystan Owain Hughes sets in Opening Our Lives. Through practical daily devotions he calls on us to open our eyes to God’s presence, our ears to his call, our hearts to his love, our ways to his will, our actions to his compassion and our pain to his peace.
