Life gives us roles, but not scripts. We need a leader with vision, clear direction, and a willingness to do hard things for the greater good. In the Bible, Jesus is referred to as “Lord,” which means boss or commander. He can give you the guidance to transform every aspect of your life. In this plan, you’ll learn about the life and miracles of Jesus recorded by his first followers.

The Lenten journey is a counterintuitive journey to life by way of the cross. Each year at this time we are invited to turn and face those things from which we would rather run and hide. We walk to the cross where we experience the great unveiling and see things as they really are. We see God for who God is, and we discover ourselves for who we are.

The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus are described in the four gospels. This Easter read about how Jesus endured betrayal, suffering, and humiliation on the cross before changing the world through the hope offered by His resurrection. A short video illustrates part of the story for each day of this plan.

The final day of Jesus’ earthly life was not a tragedy. It was the culmination of love, obedience, and redemption.

As you behold Jesus in His suffering, you’ll discover hope, forgiveness, and new life. Pause, reflect, and encounter the Savior who gave everything for you.

This reading plan is not the full account of God with Us but takes you through select events during Jesus’ final week as he visits Jerusalem for the last time leading up to his death and resurrection.

This Lenten season, I invite you to a daily pause to come close to the story. In your busy life, remember that Easter is on its way.
