For Christians, history is divided by the life of one person – Jesus of Nazareth, the Messianic Son of God. What happened before and after Jesus may be important, but it pales in significance when compared to the events surrounding Jesus. His life, His teachings, His death, and His resurrection were not just world changing – they changed even the nature of eternity.
Holy Week is the annual observance of the story of Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem, His crucifixion by Rome, and His resurrection from the dead on the first day of the week. A Savior is Risen- An Easter Devotional (Zondervan), by Susan Hill, is a collection of forty devotions designed to enhance this season of reflection on the final days of Jesus. Bible verses and prayers accompany each devotion, offering thoughtful meditations of hope and love.
In A Savior is Risen, Hill reminds us that, “It is because of the physical resurrection of Christ that you can have hope. You can have faith. You can have freedom…This is not just a feel-good story. This is the story that rewrites your story…His relationship with you is ever-fixed and abounding in steadfast love.”
May your Easter season be filled with peace as we embrace the message of Jesus, contemplate His death, and rejoice in the power and promise of His resurrection.
