Hard Thanks: A 45-Day Lenten Journal

Hard Thanks is a 45-day guided Lenten journal designed to help you practice gratitude not just when life feels good—but when it costs you something.

Rooted in the Sermon on the Mount, the Psalms, and the Eucharist, this journal invites you into daily reflection, prayer, and action that gently reshapes how you think, love, and respond. This is not a productivity planner or a surface-level gratitude exercise. It is a slow, intentional companion for the interior work of Lent.

Across six weeks, you’ll move through:

  • Scripture-based reflections from Matthew 5–7

  • Eucharistic Psalms that anchor gratitude in worship and presence

  • Thoughtfully paced reflection questions.

  • Weekly rest days to pause, integrate, and breathe

  • Practices that move gratitude from thought into lived obedience

This journal is designed to meet you where you are—whether you have five quiet minutes or a longer window for prayer—and to help you cultivate a gratitude that is honest, grounded, and transformative.

This journal is for women who:

  • Want a deeper, more intentional Lent

  • Feel weary of performative or shallow spiritual practices

  • Desire gratitude that is rooted in truth, not denial

  • Long to integrate prayer, Scripture, and daily life

You do not need to “keep up” or do this perfectly. Hard Thanks is meant to be returned to—not rushed through.

Customer video review of PRE-ORDER Hard Thanks: A 45 Day Journal through the Challenging Teachings of Christ

The pace of this booklet is perfect for Lent. It asks probing questions for reflection and allows me time to process the teaching. The Rest Day is great as well because I can contemplate the lessons of the previous week before moving on to a new teaching. An added bonus is the thick paper quality and artwork of this journal.

Hard Thanks: A 45 Day Journal through the Challenging Teachings of Christ

Hard Thanks is really well thought out. There is deep content each day to make you reflect, and the tone and style are light and simple. I love the Tissot watercolours and the layout which make me look forward to picking up the book. Reading in silence works better for me than podcasts, so I really appreciate the chance to have something beautiful and profound to work through during Lent. Thank you,
