There are four collections of stories about the life of Jesus. They are called gospels and are named for their authors – Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. One week stands out as they tell the news about Jesus Christ. About this week there is great unity of emphasis and content. It is His last week.
The stories of Jesus’ final week make up much of all four gospel writers memories. That makes sense. There are two weeks in the Bible that make all the difference. The first, the week when God created all things. The second, the last week of Jesus’ life when He made right what we had wrecked in God’s perfect creation.
Beginning this Sunday, I invite you to follow along the path of Jesus to the cross. The cross isn’t the end of the story. The next week read along as we meet the risen Jesus on dusty roads of abandonment, mountain tops of worship and doubt, and in locked rooms soaked in fear.
