Lent, Holy Week, Easter: Catholic Audio Course & Free Study Guide

By John Francis Baldovin

Lent, Holy Week, and Easter commemorate the crucifixion, death, and resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ. These thirteen weeks are fundamental to the liturgical year, a time of vital importance to Catholics. During this time of sacrifice and solemnity, we are called to reflect on the presence of Christ in our lives. Now you are invited to join one of the world's leading liturgical scholars on this fascinating journey into the vital seasons of Lent and Easter. Through twelve lectures, you will discover the history, development, and practices of these holy seasons. First, you will focus on the history of Lent. You will look at its origins, tracing how we have come to celebrate it as a forty-day season. After examining the practices and spiritual meaning of this season of sacrifice, you will then turn to Palm Sunday and Holy Week, paying special attention to the Triduum (Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter Sunday). Finally, you will learn about the fifty-day season of Easter, including the Sundays of Ascension and Pentecost.
