  <itunes:subtitle>Stick to the three pillars of Lent for the full forty days with this strategy from Jeff Cavins. We hear about fasting, almsgiving, and prayer so often during Lent that the words can become bland and lose meaning. But these practices are not arbitrary measures designed to make us miserable for forty days. They are spiritual disciplines specifically aimed at three areas of weakness in our souls. They help us overcome sin and become more like Jesus. Jeff shows us the effectiveness of these practices by comparing biblical figures from Genesis and 1 John to Jesus’ example in the Gospel of Matthew. He also provides some alternate ways of thinking about fasting, almsgiving, and prayer to help rejuvenate our commitment this Lent. </itunes:subtitle>

  <itunes:subtitle>In today’s episode, Jeff tries something new. He wants you to meet his friend Dr. Edward Sri.

Dr. Sri is a theologian, speaker, author of several bestselling books, and also hosts a podcast. He just authored a brand new book entitled “No Greater Love: A Biblical Walk Through Christ’s Passion.” In addition to the book, he went to Israel to film videos that allow you to meditate on Christ’s passion in a much deeper way.

Jeff and Dr. Sri also answer tough questions such as: 
If God is going to wipe away our sin, couldn't there have been another way besides crucifixion? 
Was Jesus abandoned by the Father when he called out “My God, my God. Why have you forsaken me?” 
Did Jesus have second thoughts about dying for our sins when he asked God to “let this cup pass from me?”

Snippet from the Show:
“You will never see God’s love more beautifully shine than in these accounts of Christ’s passion.”
