These profound reflections on the cross from David Mathis, author of The
Christmas We Didn't Expect, will help you to meditate on and marvel
at Jesus' life, sacrificial death, and spectacular
resurrection-enabling you to treasure anew who Jesus is and what he has
done. Many of us are so familiar with the Easter story that it becomes
easy to miss subtle details and difficult to really enjoy its meaning.
This book will help you to pause anmarvel at Jesus, whose now-glorified
wounds are a sign of his unfailing love and the decisive victory that he
has won: "He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for
our iniquities, the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by
his wounds we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5) This book can be used as a
devotional. The chapters on Holy Week make it especially helpful during
the Lent season and at Easter.
