Dr. Christopher Richmann's Stretched provides a Lenten study designed to deepen Christian spiritual practices across the whole year. The book frames Lent not merely as a seasonal exercise but as an entry point to sustained Christian growth, offering readings, reflections, and practices. Richmann draws on Scripture, tradition, and pastoral insight to guide readers through themes of repentance, renewal, and discipleship. The study includes practical exercises intended to form habits of prayer, fasting, and charity that extend beyond Lent. Its goal is to help Christians integrate Lenten disciplines into an ongoing rhythm of spiritual life.
