Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0874869269, Hardcover)

A time for self-denial, soul-searching, and spiritual preparation, Lent is a fitting season for daily reading and reflection. Hence this book, which offers meditations from a wide spectrum of classic and contemporary Christian writers.

Containing selections grouped around such themes as temptation, crucifixion, resurrection, and new life, Bread and Wine can be dipped into at leisure or used as a guide to daily devotions—and returned to any time of year for spiritual revitalization. For breadth of scope and depth of insight, nothing rivals this collection.
