## What is Forty?

I built Forty for my first Lent.

I was new to the practices—lectio divina, the Examen, the liturgical calendar—and I wanted everything in one place. Not scattered across PDFs and websites. Not gamified. Just a quiet, beautiful space to help me stay close to what this season is about.

Forty is what I made. I hope it helps you too.

What's inside:

- Daily readings from the liturgical calendar, with guided lectio divina and space to journal your reflections.

- The Ignatian Examen, walked through gently—Gratitude, Review, Sorrow, Grace—with room to write.

- Walkthroughs for the Rosary, the Stations of the Cross, and the Sorrowful Mysteries.

- A guide for preparing for Confession, and an Examination of Conscience.

- A place to set your Lenten commitments and return to your "why" when you need it.

- The Jesus Prayer, as a simple breathing meditation.

- A calendar to see where you are in the forty days.

What it's not:

No streaks. No achievements. No distractions. Just a prayerful place to be.
