This is the week everything has been leading toward. Every moment of Lent has prepared our hearts to enter the final days of Jesus’ earthly life—His betrayal, suffering, death, burial, and ultimate victory over the grave.

Holy Week invites us to slow down and behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.

These days are sacred ground. Walk through them not as a distant observer of history, but as a beloved disciple following your Savior to the cross.

This week follows the format of all the weeks of breaking down the text each day. This means that you will focus on the part of Matthew after the resurrection each day. Do not feel obligated to read that one. You can read some of the past devotionals that discuss what happened at the Last Supper, the Crucifixion, etc. You can sit in that moment with our risen Lord during the week in addition to these devotionals. However, we do hope that each reflection this week draws you nearer to the suffering and love of Christ, to help you see with fresh eyes what He endured for your redemption, and to rest in the hope that death is not the end.

As we approach Resurrection Sunday, may your heart be broken, stilled, and then awakened to the fullness of His victory.
