PREPARING YOUR HEART FOR EASTER
Robert L. Thomas, Christian scholar and professor at The Master’s Seminary, made a compelling observation in his book A Harmony of the Gospels with Explanations and Essays: “The events surrounding the final days of our Lord’s earthly life are described by the Gospel writers in more detail than any other part of His life. When their accounts are brought together, they form a vivid and detailed picture of Passion Week.”
In God's wisdom, out of all the days in Jesus’ earthly ministry, only 21 are captured in detail across the four Gospels. The most thoroughly recorded is Passion Week culminating in the death and resurrection of our Savior.
To help prepare our hearts for the upcoming Easter service, we invite you to spend time each day this coming week reflecting on the events that preceded Christ’s resurrection from the dead.
Below, you’ll find selected Scripture passages for daily reading throughout the week. Let these passages not only focus our minds on God’s Word but also serve as a foundation for our prayers.
