Why? We’re resistant,” says Kelly. “Lent is a perfect opportunity to change that. So we’re inviting people to do something different this Lent that will help them find true happiness and become the-best-version-of-themselves.” The 40-day program also includes daily video reflections from members of the Dynamic Catholic team, a [*Resisting Happiness*](http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/1942611919/catholicmom) study guide for parishes and individuals, and helpful information for participants to learn more about the Lenten season.
