Reflections for Lent Daily Bible Notes from the Church of England

iOS Universal

Reflections for Lent offers a simple way to make space for Bible study and reflection from Ash Wednesday (22 February 2012) to Holy Saturday (7 April 2012).

**Issues with the external site that feeds the Bible Readings should now be resolved. Apologies for the interruption.**

** As Lent 2012 is now coming to a close we have made the app free. You can download this app or try the full Reflections for Daily Prayer app which will then also allow you to purchase daily readings for Easter and beyond**

Each day (excluding Sundays) it provides daily Bible readings, a reflection by a leading author, and a prayer for the day.

Christians have used the season of penitence we call Lent to prepare for Jesus' suffering, death and resurrection at Easter. In Lent it is traditional to fast, pray and practice self-denial. But keeping Lent also involves taking up things that help us focus on God.

In particular, Christians are encouraged to set aside time for reading and meditating on God's word. Reflections for Lent can help you find a time and space to do this - on the move, at work or at home.

For each of the forty days of Lent, the app gives you:
- A reflection on a Bible reading
- A Collect (prayer)
- Full lectionary details for Morning Prayer from Common Worship

The daily reflections are written by leading authors Martyn Percy, Angela Tilby and Jane Williams.

Other features of this app:
Browse reflections by date, author and Bible reading
Bookmark your favourite daily entries for easy reference
See reflections for the week ahead
Follow Bible reference links to the online Oremus Bible Browser (NRSV) - no need for a separate Bible app

The Reflections for Lent app is published by Church House Publishing, the official publisher of the Church of England. For more information visit www.dailyprayer.org.uk or www.chpublishing.co.uk

Of course, the practice of daily prayer and Bible reading is one many people aim to keep beyond Lent. If you enjoy using this Reflections for Lent app, you can access same high-quality content all year round with the Reflections for Daily Prayer app.
