Claire Lynch reads the opening of Mark's gospel, day 1 of 47 in our Lent series. Music by Bern Leckie.

Good news \u2013 life can be different! Mark is writing to people who want and need this, who know that carrying on the way things are is not an option. It will lead to death, but they are hungry for life.

Are you hungry for change? If it came today, would you hear John\u2019s call to repent (which means \u2018change your mind\u2019) and receive forgiveness as good news or an unwelcome challenge? Would you want to know more? What would you look for to check this call was authentic, and not a scam?

At the beginning of Lent, we are invited to follow Jesus into the wilderness for forty days, taking time away from normal things, seeking God, growing trust in him. We might fast and feel more hunger for change. We will also need food. Can you take some time now to ask God how he wants to feed you today?
