Holy Week begins on Palm Sunday and ends with Easter Sunday. By following Christ's footsteps through daily scripture readings, take your own spiritual journey and prepare your heart for honoring him this Easter.

The historical events recorded in John 18–20 provide a vivid account of the first Easter. In this eight-day plan, Alistair Begg considers the meaning and relevance behind events like Jesus Christ’s surrender in Gethsemane, His death on a cross, and the empty tomb that He left behind.

The devotionals in this eight-day series focus the reader’s attention on the final week of Jesus’ life and the circumstances surrounding his death, burial, and resurrection. When Jesus entered Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, he entered a city filled with political strife, fear and uneasiness. Following Jesus’ actions and interactions each day gives readers a clearer understanding of the context of the events that serve as the foundation for Christian faith.

The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus are essential to Christian belief. Join Pastor David Guzik in studying several Bible passages which describe the fulfillment of God’s Word in these events and the power of Jesus’ resurrection in our lives. As the Bible says, these things were written that you may believe in Jesus the Son of God and have life in His name!
