The popular author of previous "Daily Reflections for Advent and Christmas", Katherine Howard, O.S.B., now brings her wisdom and insights to the Lenten season. "Not by Bread Alone" offers daily reflections and meditations that focus on the Lenten themes of repentance and redemption, sacrifice and salvation - as well as the Easter message of resurrection and new life. Using only two pages per day, Howard's poignant reflections nourish readers and help strengthen their relationships with God. These reflections on the daily readings make it simple for even the busiest person to make prayer an important part of everyday life."Not by Bread Alone" by Katherine Howard offers daily invitations to encounter Jesus and his hospitable heart, his compassion and insight into each reader's condition. Sister Katherine's images and anecdotes bring the Lenten readings to new life in this compelling summons to know God's love and transforming work. Revisiting Jesus' engagements with his contemporaries, Sister Katherine gives fresh and vibrant portrayals of his profoundly merciful understanding of humanity.
She assures the Lenten pilgrim that even sinful tendencies are alive with positive possibility in the light of Christ's love and transformative healing, and she encourages increased openness and deeper trust in him through her provocative suggestions for meditation. This is a rich and giving book." - Jana Preble, Oblate of Saint Benedict's Monastery, St. Joseph, Minnesota.
