The Lenten Challenge

On this episode I introduce the Lenten Challenge. Ash Wednesday is on February 26^th this year. This is the start of lent and the 40 Day Lenten Challenge,

I am challenging you to do this with the other men that listen to the Regular Catholic Guy Show. There are some prayer commitments, sacrifices and reading involved in the challenge.
