The Characters of Easter

The Villains, Heroes, Cowards, and Crooks Who Witnessed History's Biggest Miracle

Beschreibung

A New Look at the Ancient Story of Easter You've heard the story more times than you can count. The arrest of Jesus. The trials before the judges. The passion. And of course, the resurrection. A story like that can never grow old--but it can become so familiar that you miss the parts that are right before your eyes. Following up on his The Characters of Christmas, Daniel Darling's The Characters of Easter takes a new look at the people and circumstances that were part of the greatest story ever told. With a skillful blend of in-depth Bible interpretation and sanctified imagination, Darling introduces you to the villains, heroes, cowards, and crooks who witnessed history's biggest miracle. Each chapter is accompanied by questions for group study as well as suggested songs--both old and new--that lead to heartfelt worship. Let The Characters of Easter lead your soul to rejoice with that ancient cry, "He is risen indeed!" Break free from the familiar, and discover untold treasures in the story you thought you knew. You'll read about: * SIMON PETER * JUDAS * PILATE * JOHN * MARY MAGDALENE * AND OTHERS
