On the cover: A painting depicting Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane by 19th-century artist Carl Heinrich Bloch. For Christians, Lent can be compared to the time Jesus spent praying in the desert.

Richard Antall reflects on two traditional prayers to the same angel that comforted Christ on the Mount of Olives.
