Today is the 14th day of April.

Welcome to the Daily Audio Bible.

I'm Brian.

It is wonderful to be here with you today as we journey forward.

We're journeying forward through Holy Week this week.

So we just probably should just keep that in the back of our minds anyway as we move

through our days.

Just understanding we're moving towards something, a massive celebration around the world

of the resurrection on Easter this Sunday but we should also be

remembering that uh there's a good Friday right there's a death before all of that and

it is the great picture of the cost of sin and so we move through a week of repentance and

truly reflecting upon like the choices that we're making the things that we're doing as we approach

resurrection it's not like a get out of jail free card it's the most

unbelievable display of love possible to set us free to be able to turn away and be made new

and be given a new nature and be born again.

The star over, not just to go back, but to star over and be born again.

So I am grateful to be here. I am grateful for all of that. And yet I think of my own life and

wow, how much I could never possibly ever deserve that kind of love.

And that's what makes it a gift that is impossible to ignore.

I hope you feel the same way.

So Holy Week, let's move through this together.

As we continue to take the next steps forward in the scriptures,
