During this Lenten season, we wanted to provide you with the reading plan from These Forty Days, written by one of our featured writers, Jeren Rowell.  These Forty Days is a simple guide for the reading of Scripture. While the daily reading plan is made available below, These Forty Days includes reflections, prayers, and additional readings for each day and is available in paperback, eBook, and audiobook.

Many churches and individuals around the world are using These Forty Days, so we invite you to join us.
