"Brace yourselves."
I was hoping perhaps Josh was about to post an advertisement for men's suspenders.
So tomorrow is "Dirty Forehead" day.

Yup. Keep an eye out for Joe Biden.
I would love to see an explanation as to why so many in confessional Presbyterian circles have adopted Lent and all its trappings.
Because two of those three words are not true?

The shame is that Reformed worship celebrates Lent, or at least the principles thereof. Reformed worship, however, should do it every week along with Christmas, Easter, Epiphany, et al.
No. Reformed worship goes on DESPITE xmax, easter, and the host of man invented holy days.

Any short articles or tracts that are irenic to send to our catholic friends?

Spoken like a true missionary.
I find Lent makes for a great time of year to engage in spiritual conversations with both Catholics and many liberal Protestants who don't really know the gospel but find themselves, for a few months each year, trying or feeling forced to be somewhat "extra spiritual," even if only in small ways. Some of those people seem more open this time of year to hearing why I approach things differently than they do. They may be surprised that I—someone they thought was very spiritual—don't do anything for Lent. They ask why. I use the opportunity to talk about Jesus, of course, not about what holidays are appropriate.
I am not sure a large technical article on a term that folks have never heard before ("Regulative Principle of Worship") is the best way to irenically engage Catholic friends and make them think.
I was thinking 3-4 paragraphs, friendly, clear, laymen's terms, and simple...explain lent and explain why the Gospel is better.
I'm giving up lent for lent. And lint too.

I hear the pope is giving up popery for lent. But he won't be back in 40 days.
