I grew up in regular and independent Baptist churches, so we didn't honor Ash Wednesday or the 40 days of Lent like my RCC and Lutheran (and some others) brethren. For those like me, Mark D. Roberts has written a helpful series on this season of the Christian calendar.
Last year I blogged about giving up fast food. I lasted only two weeks. This year I'm acknowledging Lent in a different way.

Lent abstinence
I grew up attending a Baptist church, so Lent is a foreign concept to me. However, I have decided this year to participate in the self-denial aspects of this particular season. I have decided to give up fast-food for 40 days.
I promise to be honest with you, dear reader. Will I make it? Let's see...
One of my favorite bloggers, Pastor Mark Daniels, has a post about Lent and Ash Wednesday. If you live in the Cincinnati area and you have no church home, do visit his church - he has directions for you.
