Episode 191: Lent with Littles

Lent challenges adults on so many levels—through fasting, prayer, and almsgiving—and especially through cultivating a humble and contrite spirit. But what does that look like when our homes and hearts are occupied with young children? Today’s guest, homeschooling mom, Alex Resch, is here to share her tips on Lent with Littles.
