On Calvary's Hill

40 Readings for the Easter Season (A 40-Day Lent Devotional)

About this book

In his last week on Earth, Jesus knew the end was near. He knew the finality of Friday, but did he also know the victory of Sunday? Join bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado invites you to walk with Jesus in the week leading up to the crucifixion: feeling his passion, sensing his authority, and hearing his promise that death has no power.

On Calvary's Hill paints a picture of Jesus in his final week: Jesus was commonly dressed but uncommonly focused. Leaving Jericho and walking toward Jerusalem, he doesn't chatter or pause. He's on his final journey. Even the angels are silent. They know this is no ordinary walk or week--hinged on this week is the door of eternity.

With excerpts from Max's bestsellers, including 3:16, He Chose the Nails, and Just Like Jesus, On Calvary's Hill will take you into Jesus' last week, from the road to Jerusalem to the resurrection. Each reading includes a timeless verse, an in-depth reading, and a thoughtful prayer designed to help you draw near to the Savior and prepare to celebrate the resurrection--the greatest miracle ever conceived.

As we observe Jesus' last week, Max challenges us to face difficult questions, including:

  • When betrayal comes, what can we do?
  • Why is the cross a symbol of Christianity?
  • What would it feel like to witness this scene firsthand?

 

Let's follow Jesus on his final journey. By observing his, we may learn how to make ours.
