I highly recommend Rick Reiter’s book, Before the Stone Rolled: A 6 Day Journey to Prepare Your Heart for Easter.  Rick challenges us to walk this week by coming closer to the Lord and understanding what our relationship, worship, and love should be for this amazing sacrifice Jesus so freely gives to all who will accept His incredible gift.
