Book Overview

The More Abundant Life: Lenten Readings is a religious book written by Phillips Brooks and first published in 1897. The book is a collection of daily readings meant to be read during the season of Lent, a period of fasting and reflection in the Christian faith. The author, Phillips Brooks, was an American Episcopal clergyman and author who was known for his powerful sermons and speeches. In this book, he offers readers a series of meditations on various aspects of the Christian faith, including sin, redemption, forgiveness, and the love of God. Each reading is designed to be short and accessible, with a focus on helping readers deepen their spiritual lives and grow closer to God. The book is divided into six sections, one for each week of Lent, and includes a brief introduction to each section that sets the tone for the readings to come.
