# Event Details

- **Event Name**: The Forum with The Rev. Dr. Maggi Dawn: Beginnings and Endings & Giving It Up (In-Person)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 08 Feb, 2026 at 09:30 am
- **Event Description**: Author, professor, and priest Maggi Dawn has written two guides to the church year: Beginnings and Endings (and what happens in between): Daily Bible readings from Advent to Epiphany and Giving It Up: Daily Bible Readings from Ash Wednesday to Easter Day.

Our everyday lives are full of small-scale beginnings and endings – births, deaths, marriages, careers, house moves and so on. How do the grand-scale beginnings and endings of Advent help to guide us as we seek to follow Jesus in the 21st century?

The idea of ‘giving something up for Lent’ is widely known, but how many know that the ancient discipline of the Lenten fast had several purposes? – a reminder of our daily dependence on God for all our needs, to draw us closer to God in prayer, to reconnect with the idea of community, and to help us follow Christ’s journey through the wilderness and on to Jerusalem.

Join Malcolm Clemens Young, Dean of Grace Cathedral, for a conversation with Dawn about how Lent can be a time for exploring a different kind of ‘giving up’ – one that can transform our lives – and how ancient wisdom informs the human experience that happens in between beginnings and endings, grand and small scale.
