Explains difficult concepts succinctly. Great reading! Great way to reconnect during lent.
This book opened my understanding of so many aspects of Jesus’ suffering and death. Dr. Sri anticipates every question one might have about the Gospel accounts and guides us step by step to the depth of each act, each word, and the background in which the drama too place. I especially was touched with his clear and easily understood citing how Jesus was fulfilling Old Testament prophecies regarding the Messiah. My mind and heart were opened as I read about the passion from the point-of- view of those who witnessed it and understood the prophecies.This book has had a transforming and deepening effect on my love for Jesus and a sense of appreciation for the way Scripture reveals how the Bible is one continuous and consistent story! Truly amazing!
Studying our Lords Passion as a study group. Written with such depth and love for Jesus and His walk to Calvary suffering for our sins.
Amazing book about Christ’s Passion. Have read it more than once. Excellent read for Lent. Have recommended to my small church group & we will be using it for discussion for Lent. Will also be watching the videos. Anxious to be sharing & discussing with others.
One of the most amazing books I have read about Christ’s Passion and his 7 last words from the cross. Easy to read and understand. Had me in tears more than several times. An excellent book for the Lenten season
