This is a fascinating article written by Peter Leithart:

Keep the Fast, Keep the Feast

In the article Peter provides some excellent theological background for properly understanding fasting and Lent.  Lent and it’s propoer use has been the subject of much discussion recently amoung some of the CREC pastors. I think his insights are very useful to recovering a biblical and a modern Protestant understanding of the Lenten season.
