Hi friends. I am Annie F. Downs. Let's read the Gospels. The Gospels are the first four books of the New Testament in the Bible, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. These are the stories of Jesus Christ's life on earth. The friendships, the parables, the sacrifices, the meals, the miracles. Each month we get to read all four books. So go ahead, subscribe today. Join us as we read the Gospels

together. Now, normally, y'all know we read three chapters a day to get through the whole

four books in 30 days. But this month is a little different. We are mixing it up and reading the

gospels chronologically from the new international version or the NIV. So we read stories in the order in which they took place,

usually getting something from all four books.

So I'll share the references with you here at the beginning,

and you can find them in the show notes as well.

You can listen or read along in your own Bible, and then I'll pray, and that's it.

The Crucifixion from Mark.

A certain man from Cyrene, Simon, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing by on

his way in from the country, and they forced him to carry the cross.

They brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha, which means the place of the skull.

Then they offered him wine mixed with Mur, but he did not take it. And they crucified him,

dividing up his clothes. They cast lots to see what each would get. From Matthew. As they were going

out, they met a man from Cyrene named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross.

They came to a place called Golgotha, which means the place of the skull.

There they offered Jesus wine to drink, mixed with gall, but after tasting it, he refused to drink it.

From Luke. As the soldiers led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country,

and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus. A large number of people followed him,
