Today’s readings focus on temptation, citing Adam and Eve’s encounter with the serpent, and Jesus’ confrontation with the devil in the desert after 40 days of fasting.

We’re only a few days into our Lenten Journey. Are you having trouble resisting temptation already? Look to Jesus example for strength.

Welcome to The Dialog’s Lenten Journey for 2026. Each morning we will bring you a thought to start your day — a passage from scripture, a quote from a saint or faith-filled person, or a suggestion for a work of mercy — along with links to each day’s readings and other Lent-related topics.

Additionally, everyone is invited to return to the Sacrament of Reconciliation during this holy season. Watch thedialog.org for more information about this year’s Reconciliation Monday in the Diocese of Wilmington.
