The highlight of your week is already here. It's time for another action-packed episode of Monday Madness, brought to you by the Supreme Executive Committee. This week features conversation about the Round of the 32's epic conclusion with the Fratricide Finish between John Wesley and Charles Wesley. Tim and Scott also take some time to share some behind-the-scenes insights into the making of Monday Madness.

When you finish, make sure you watch the latest video from the Archbishops and more at LentMadnessTV.

Yep, it's that time again. Tim and Scott hold forth on all things madnesstastic. Tune in for the latest news about Lent Madness Fever sweeping the nation and/or the House of Bishops. Watch LentMadnessTV every day. Or multiple times a day if you want a true wilderness experience.

Remember, you can be a Lent Madness evangelist. It's not too late to invite your friends, your church, and your nation to join the bestest Lenten discipline in the world.

Well, friends, it's almost here. Less than three days until Ash Thursday, the formal kickoff off Lent Madness 2014. This week, Tim and Scott talk about how you can get instant gratification by buying the Saintly Scorecard for your Amazon Kindle, B&N Nook, or Apple iThing. (Visit the Lentorium for more indispensable items for your Lenten journey.) Scott and Tim also give you instructions on how to take Lent Madness to the streets with Brackets to Go. Last, but not least, they tell you the precise moment that this year's competition begins, including a sneak preview of an addition to this year's opening day ceremonies.

If you enjoyed this -- and who wouldn't -- you'll want to watch the Archbishops' latest update from Quinquagesima Sunday.

Make sure you encourage everyone you know to like Lent Madness on Facebook or follow Lent Madness on Twitter. Getting through Lent without that would be Lent without the Madness, like Ash Wednesday without ashes or Palm Sunday without palms. Inconceivable, yes? So evangelize for Lent Madness!

In the latest action-packed episode of Monday Madness, Tim and Scott talk about everything from Celebrity Blogger "Week" to Presbyterians. Make sure you have a widget on your website, and you too could get a shoutout by the Supreme Executive Committee. When you finish watching this video, make sure you watch Maple Anglican's excellent Sexagesima video and then visit the Lentorium.

Last, but not least, there's only nine days left until Ash Thursday, so the clock is ticking on Lent Madness evangelism. This is the day to go door-to-door in your neighborhood to share the joy of the Saintly Smackdown.

Apparently some basketball teams run their own bracket. Thanks to Warren Buffet you can get one billion dollars for correctly completing that other bracket. It's madness! Because Lent Madness is better than basketball, the prize for flawlessly completing a Lent Madness bracket is also better. Watch this week's episode of Monday Madness (Tuesday Edition) to learn more.

Scott and Tim urge you to show how much you love Jesus by buying plenty of copies of the Saintly Scorecard and the giant bracket poster. You'll also want to follow Lent Madness on Twitter and Facebook.

Don't forget to head over to the Lentorium so you stock up on Lent gifts for all your friends and neighbors.
