Facts and Faith 9(1):11. CELD ID 6515 Abstract 'Tis the season for contemplation. The forty days of Lent, as I mentioned in this column a year ago, commemorates Jesus' fasting and temptation in the wilderness, His spiritual preparation for a few intense years of itinerant ministry in which He would be loved by a few, recognized by fewer still, and by the rest, misunderstand, maligned, mocked, malevolently scrutinized, and savagely executed--in other words, treated as He is, in spirit, today.
