The Night He Was Betrayed: Jesus, 12 Disciples, and Life-Changing Lessons from the Upper Room: 1 (Easter Devotional Series) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

From the Easter Devotional Series named one of Gary Thomas’ top 10 “Favorite Reads of 2022”

There's a gap in our lives. The world may prepare well for Christmas, but Easter is different. We rarely dedicate a long period of time to prepare for Easter.

The Night He Was Betrayed fulfills that gap. The gripping, first book of an Easter devotional series examines the night Jesus was betrayed. Based on a live, three-week presentation to an adult ministry, the devotion study leads readers through the Gospels and into the large, furnished room upstairs. There, we listen to the conversations that were recorded and watch the movements of Jesus that took the disciples by surprise on that fateful evening.

“Takes you intimately inside the 'familiar' moments of Jesus's last supper with His disciples and His subsequent betrayal, making each moment and sometimes even each word remarkably fresh, powerfully convicting, and incredibly inspiring."

– Gary Thomas, Author of Sacred Marriage and Thirsting for God

As the celebration of the Passover meal unfolds and unravels right before our eyes, Christians discover:

• The life-changing lessons Jesus shared with the disciples in the upper room
• The cost of following Jesus – and the extraordinary cost awaiting Christ himself
• The darkness of the evening that connects with the beginning of Creation

Step into The Night He Was Betrayed to prepare your heart for the Light of the Resurrection.
