Lenten Reading Plans

Bonaventure · **Posted:** Sat Feb 13, 2010 12:58 pm

4 different Reading Plans from Father Jerabek, a friend of Father Horton.

The reading plans include a Church Fathers reading plan, The lives of the great Saints reading plan taken from audiences of the Holy Father, a Blessed John Henry Newman and Father Faber reading plan, and a St. John Vianney reading plan.

Edward Pothier has a New Testament reading plan here as well. The plan takes you through the entire NT during Lent.

Thanks for this - just as I was thinking I should sort out a plan tomorrow.

I was just about to re-post the link to Fr Jerabek's reading plans. It's good I decided to check out this new Lent forum first.

I didn't see this last year. I'm so glad to see it this year! I don't know which one to pick!

I may give Pothier's plan a shot. I haven't comprehensively gone through the NT since college.

An introduction to the Liturgy of the Hours. Its available for both Kindle and Nook. I've got it on my Nook and will see how it goes.

It's not specific to Lent but my priest loaned me a copy of The Miracle Detective by Randall Sullivan. Does anyone have any thoughts on it?

I got excited for a second because I saw Dominicatella's name show up, I was like, Ah! ... and then I saw the date. :oops:

Are there any such plans for reading the Catechism during Lent or would that be too long of a book to do in that timeframe... or just a bad idea to try to digest that much information that quickly? Or a bad idea for other reasons...

The have a Kindle version now and they dropped the price a few weeks ago... methinks it may time to break down and get the CCC.

Thanks, Bonaventure. I just downloaded Faber and Newman. I've never sent anything to my Kindle before so I'm glad I actually was able to figure it out. :clap:
