Are You Ready For Easter?

Prepare to discover the last week of Jesus's life and the crucifixion of a king

We’re a week away from one of Christendom’s biggest celebrations, which, bafflingly, profiteers have tied to chocolate bunnies who lay eggs.

My new biography on the life of Jesus comes out on Tuesday, but I can’t wait that long to share it with you.

If you’d like to start reading the book right now, download the first chapter for free.

We’ve also just released two YouVersion devotionals on Bible.com!

Jesus’s sacrifice was significantly more brutal than most people imagine. If you’d like to prepare yourself for Easter by learning the unvarnished truth of Christ’s surrender, read The Crucifixion of Jesus: A Six-Day Meditation on Christ’s Ultimate Sacrifice.

The second devotional was significantly more work to create, and I really hope you enjoy the mystery, intrigue, and suspense:

If you want a three-week devotional that unravels the day-by-day and sometimes hour-by-hour events that led to Jesus’s assassination—including the machinations of the despotic crime family who covertly engineered the whole plot—read The Last Week of Jesus’s Life.

Both these devotionals are completely free, so please share them with your friends, family, small group, and local church.

As Easter approaches, let’s prepare our hearts to receive the risen king.
