Jesus invited his disciples to be with him in Gethsemane as he struggled with his own hour of death.

Produktbeschreibung
Jesus invited his disciples to be with him in Gethsemane as he struggled with his own hour of death. These Lenten devotions are intended to help us do just that: to be with Jesus in his hour(s) facing dying--not just as observers, but as fellow mortals, with all of our own fears and anxieties. The daily exposure and interaction with texts of Scripture related to Jesus' own dying will bring the reader into close interaction with Jesus and biblical sources of promise and hope. Through these devotionals, you and Jesus will be together in that place that you most intimately and equally share: dying. But it will be an encounter of hope, not despair; joy, not grief; vision, not disillusion. Lent is a time to know Jesus better. And perhaps to know ourselves better in the process. This disciplined pilgrimage begins with Jesus' life and takes us through his death and the stunning implications of that death for each of us. This is a profoundly human story of the human Jesus, living and dying to help us live our lives in fuller knowledge of who we are and who he is.
Autorenporträt
Dale Goldsmith feels blessed to have spent most of his life in college--as student (BA Princeton, MA/PhD University of Chicago), professor (Baptist Seminary of Mexico and McPherson College), and academic dean (McPherson College and Oklahoma Panhandle State University). Throughout, the study and application of Scripture was central to experiencing purpose and pleasure in the college experience. The author of Growing in Wisdom: Called to the Adventure of College, Dale invites you to use these daily meditations as a resource in living your own college adventure.
