The Power of Small Choices

Hilary Brand

What are you doing for Lent? How about watching a movie?

Once again, bestselling author Hilary Brand offers a unique twist to living the season of Lent. This lively five-week course explores the amazing power of the small choices we make every day, chal­lenging us to broaden our spiritual horizons in ways that will make a difference.

Two movies, The Shawshank Redemption and Babette's Feast, demonstrate the invincible human ability to make choices— choices of observation, limitation, imagination, determination, and affirmation—even in the most limited circumstances. Learn how to turn small, daily choices into occasions for personal growth and practical love, and experience this season of conver­sion anew.

• Ideal for personal spiritual reading and reflection.
• Perfect for parish lenten programs, prayer groups, RCIA, adult faith formation, or anyone who loves God and movies!
• Includes a complete guide for group leaders, additional bible study material, and suggestions for celebrating the course's completion.
