Lent is the period of the liturgical calendar leading up to Easter. It is more popular with mainline denominations, but many Christian groups embrace the traditions of the Lenten season.
It’s a time to focus on God and prepare to remember and celebrate Jesus dying on the cross and rising from the grave to save each of us. Many people decide to “give up” things for Lent to help them remember that Jesus gave his life for us, but you can also “take on” doing good things, just like Jesus did.
Is Lent Biblical? What about Ash Wednesday and Good Friday?
Sometimes I get this question (or complaint) from independent-type churches who don’t follow a traditional church calendar. Obviously, this is an issue every family or local church has the Christian freedom to decide. Here’s our opinion as a ministry that aims to serve all churches:
This season leading up to the Holy Week is not required in the Bible. The ideas behind the celebration are definitely biblical — prayer, fasting, a period of remembering Jesus’ sacrifice. From the Early Church onward, believers have marked the time leading up to the Crucifixion as a special part of the year for remembering the mission of Christ.

Activities for teaching kids about Lent in Sunday School.
For simple reasons of human error and re-print malfunction, our church bulletin this week read “First Sunday of Advent,” accidentally listing service details for the beginning of the Lenten season rather than Christmas.

Hi Tony
I teach Sunday School at an International Church in Kampala, Uganda. We’ve just decided to focus on Lent during this season (a tradition that may or may not normally be recognized by our very diverse, mostly lay-lead, church).
I’m preparing a Sunday School lesson today, but will also get to present a “kid-friendly” 30 minute sermon to the whole church on the first Sunday of March. I’ll use your “Parable of the Two Sons” lesson for Sunday School. Do you have any other resources that you think would be helpful to me as I prepare to speak to both adults and kids on the topic “An Introduction to Lent”?
Thanks,
Lindsay
