Is Lent biblical? In this episode of Catholic Bible Highlights, former Protestant pastor Kenny Burchard explores the scriptural foundation for Lent, fasting, prayer, almsgiving, repentance, and discipleship. Responding to claims that Lent is a man-made tradition, this video walks through key Bible passages from the Gospels and Acts showing that Jesus commanded His followers to fast, pray, give, repent, remember His sacrifice, and proclaim the Gospel. Discover how the forty-day journey to Easter mirrors Christ’s own life and teaching, and why Christians across history have embraced these practices. If you’ve ever wondered where Lent appears in the Bible, this deep, Scripture-centered teaching will challenge assumptions and strengthen your faith in Jesus and His commands for daily obedience and transformation for believers seeking biblical clarity today.
