This Is the Greatest Love Story Ever Told

The companion book for the No Greater Love: A Biblical Walk Through Christ's Passion study program.

Thousands sought Jesus during his life, but only a few followed him to Calvary. What will you do?

In No Greater Love: A Biblical Walk Through Christ’s Passion, Dr. Edward Sri invites you to follow Jesus through the final hours of his life. This biblical pilgrimage walks step by step from the Garden of Gethsemane to the Mount of Calvary, revealing the depth of Christ’s incredible love for us.

This book helps readers reflect on what Jesus was experiencing at each moment of his Passion and how the Old Testament pointed to his death. It explores why Christ died for us and what his sacrifice accomplished. It also explains the meaning behind powerful moments in the Passion, such as the tearing of the temple veil, the crowning with thorns, and the final words Jesus spoke from the cross.

Every step of the way, Old Testament prophecies, messianic expectations, biblical symbolism, and historical context shed light on the mystery of Christ's suffering and death. Experience a deeper understanding and appreciation of God’s immeasurable and unconditional love as you draw closer to Jesus than you ever have before.

Note: This book is one component of the full study program. It can be read on its own or alongside the program. Learn more about the No Greater Love: A Biblical Walk Through Christ's Passion study program here.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Ascension Bible Studies

Who can I reach out to with additional questions? 

If you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to give us a call at 1-800-376-0520, chat with us by clicking on the chat to the right, or email support@ascensionpress.com 

Can I stream my study videos on a Smart TV?

Thinkific may have issues streaming on Smart TVs. This is because Smart TV web browsers differ from standard computer browsers, and Thinkific does not support Chromium, which is the browser system used by most Smart TVs.

If you are having trouble loading videos on your Smart TV, you can try connecting a laptop or desktop computer to your TV using an HDMI cable and playing the videos from your computer. Many customers have found this to work well.

If you prefer to use AirPlay or screencasting from a mobile device, this may also work, as long as both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

Unfortunately, Ascension is not able to troubleshoot issues related to individual Smart TVs or casting devices.

Do I need DVDs to run a study in person?

There are three ways your group could view the study videos:

  • You could watch the videos on DVD, gathered as a group.
  • You could watch the videos streaming from our Thinkific website, gathered as a group.
  • Each person could purchase the online access and watch the videos independently at home on the Thinkific website.

We strongly recommend purchasing the DVDs for in-person group viewing because this is usually the easiest method for volunteer leaders to manage and because the DVD sets can be reused later by other Bible study groups in your parish.

Does the online study access expire?

Online access to our studies do expire after one year (or two years, if you are using The Bible Timeline: The Story of Salvation, Foundations of Faith: A Journey Through the Catechism of the Catholic Church, or Matthew: The King and His Kingdom). This access begins from the day you purchase your online access, or from the day you set up your access (if you are using a group enrollment link given to you from your small group leader).

How do I access the all-digital online course after I purchase?

After you purchase a product that includes access, check your inbox for an email from our partner Thinkific. In order to access your online study, you will receive a link in that email to create a free account with Thinkific and access your study.

You will then be able to access your online study at ascensionpress.thinkific.com.

(Note that if you have already created a Thinkific account through Ascension, you will not need to create a new one, but will then receive a link to access your online study directly.)

If you purchased multiple online course enrollments for your small group, you'll receive an email the day of your purchase with a link which you can then forward to your students. With this link, each student can create their account and access their online course.

Will I need a workbook to complete a study?

The workbook is an integral part of the study, containing reflection and discussion questions. To get the most out of the study, we recommend each participant have a Bible, his or her own workbook, and for studies that include an additional reading book, we encourage a copy of that as well.

What study materials will my group and I need?

You can choose the study materials that best fit how you plan to journey through the study! 

If you are leading a small group, we recommend purchasing the program’s Starter Pack for yourself, along with a Study Set/Workbook and Online Access for each participant.

If you are journeying through the study on your own, we recommend purchasing a Study Set/Workbook and Online Access for yourself.

In addition, we recommend that everyone have a Catholic Bible and Catechism of the Catholic Church. We recommend the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Ascension Edition and The Great Adventure Catholic Bible, which incorporates the same color-coded learning system used throughout our studies.

Can I download and print out the digital workbook from a study?

Our online edition of a study includes a digital copy of your workbook. This workbook is in a read-only format, and therefore cannot be printed out as this is a violation of copyright and intellectual property law. This version of the workbook is also unable to save student responses.

If you would prefer a printed copy of your workbook and have ordered the online-only option in error, please contact us with your order number and we will be able to help you set up your order for the printed materials instead!

This book. What can I say. I am still thinking about it. One of my favorite reads and studies I have ever done.

Christ's Passion

Dr. Sri never ceases to amaze me with his insights. I have read this book several times and plan on reading it again and again. An excellent book for Lenten reading. Every time I read it, I learn something new. You can't just do the Bible study. It's on the surface. You have to delve into it. Wonderful book!

Phenomenal Work - Parallels between Old Testament and Gospels

Dr. Sri crafted a work that is not only a detailed illustration of the Passion, but cites Old Testament prophecies to the events detailed in the Gospels accounts of Christ’s Passion. The references lead to a “deeper dive” and the Seven Last Words articulate the meaning and how they relate to Psalms and are not meant to be interpreted literally, but rather further emphasize the Son of Man accepting his fulfillment of his earthly mission being completed.

It’s a very easy read, but rich with details and provide full accounts in a consolidated manner. I’m a huge fan of Dr. Sri, and “No Greater Love” is one of my favorites. I even bought a copy for my dad as a “Lent present” knowing he would enjoy it and despite having his Catholic education, would offer him the feeling of unconditional love, mercy, and grace that I felt while reading it.

Highly recommend

Amazing!

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!

Good read!!

I'm only a few chapters in, but I'm thoroughly impressed and enjoying this book!! I'm learning to understand more deeply Christ's passion. It's a great reflection for the lenten season!

A Masterpiece!

I find that many times I'll start a book, but after a while, I'll put it down and forget about it. It seems that life places too many claims on our time.
Once I began reading this book, I couldn't put it down. I can't remember the last time I've so enjoyed reading a book.
Thank you Dr. Sri!

Can't put the book down!

We did this study at our parish and provided all participants with a copy of the book, and we viewed the videos together in a class at church. We usually struggle getting people to do the "homework" between videos when we run events like this; however, this book people were just RAVING about! Multiple people said they just couldn't put the book down, and overall the entire study was very well received.

Masterpiece

Truly a masterpiece! I bought this book when it was available before lent, but I saved it for my 3 day retreat in June. I could not put the book down. This work is very accessible to the average reader and is full of meaningful insights. If you want to understand how the passion of Christ is the fulfillment of the Father's long promised salvation then this book if for you!

A Wonderful Lenten Reading

I read No Greater Love during Lent and it changed my Lenten journey in ways I never thought it would! The story of Jesus’ Passion and how it relates to the Old Testament was truly an eye opener and a blessing to me! On the Wednesday before Holy Thursday I attended a beautiful Cantata on the Seven Last Words of Jesus from the cross and then to go through Holy Thursday and Good Friday and read that part of the book while attending Good Friday Services made the crucifixion so real and so heart tending! Thank you, Dr. Sri for writing this book! It truly was a blessing to me and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good book to read especially during Lent! God bless you!!

No Greater Love Bible Study

My wife and I offered this series to our parish and had about 27 participants. Overall it has been a great series! We had a lot of confusion in the beginning with how the sessions would run, particularly the first session. It wasn't clear what we were supposed to do at the first session. I think it would of been better to have a pre-series meeting with the participants where we handed out the materials and laid out the plan before starting the series. We both called Ascension Press a few times to try and clarify how the first session was run and going forward into the second session. Some participants were a little overwhelmed with the amount of work required, but we stressed to do what you can and don't worry about trying to cram it all in.
