Lent is finally here and with the lenten season comes a lot of wonderful opportunities for personal examination and introspection. David's Psalm 51 is often used to guide people into a spirit of repentance but we hardly ever think about the context or what David's words truly mean. On today's episode, Ashley deconstructs the idea that we are "born in sin" and helps listeners to consider healthy ways to practice and experience lent.
