with Tim Goodbody talking about Lent.
One 2 Three
Patrick Sherring

Tim talked about the relevance of the season of Lent in 2023. Lent is a church season of 40 days plus feast days of preparation for Easter, starting with Ash Wednesday. It is a period of self-examination and Tim thought – Stop – Look – Listen – was a good way to think about it in relation to your life. Traditionally this has included fasting, and in modern times this has been seen as giving up an item like chocolate, alcohol, social media, or something similar. However, a self-examination might mean taking something up,  like giving more time time to reading, helping other people  etc. Tim was going to “tread lightly”. This was literally in the way he walks, but also in wider aspects of life. He included within this not interrupting others when they were speaking and also matters in relation to the environment. He said many churches ran special courses during Lent. There is also many resources available through https://www.chelmsford.anglican.org under the theme –Travelling well together.
