People often say Lent is about "giving up" something to become more faithful. That works for some people. But what if we saw Lent as a time for "getting back" to our core convictions? For Jesus, his time in the wilderness allowed his core convictions to be tested. And he emerged more faithful. We can learn the same lesson from Jesus, and also from another middle-aged man from the Middle East named Zeitoun.
Enjoy!
