Description
How often do you remember the resurrection?
After studying the events that followed our Lord’s resurrection, I worked to consolidate the four gospels (with the first chapter of Acts) into a chronological sequence. This helped me get a clearer context of the story.
Additionally, it led me to focus on several questions asked throughout the Scriptures that resonated with my personal devotions. Each of these questions made me further contemplate the importance of the resurrection in my daily life. I want to pass those contemplations on to you.
After Jesus was crucified, His disciples were distraught. You can feel their sadness leaking from the pages, as if their tears were captured in the Bible’s closing. His death saddened them. This is where we begin our devotional journey. We will ask ourselves as the angels asked Mary, “Why are you weeping?”
Then, we will follow along the story, looking for those questions and asking ourselves, thinking more deeply about the resurrection and what it means for us today. We will join the disciples and seek in wonder, see in amazement, savor in understanding, satisfy in assurance, surrender in reverence, and finally, share in excitement.
Together with the Holy Scriptures, we will go back in time, walk with the disciples, and reflect personally on the importance of the resurrection. My aim in this devotional series is to help you become more mindful of the resurrection through life lessons on faith.
The devotional is divided into seven consecutive chapters, one for each day.
