Hey, this is David Platt. Have you ever wondered what events were going on during the week when Jesus was preparing to go to the cross.

Like what was happening that Sunday, Monday, Tuesday,

Wednesday, Thursday before he went to the cross on Friday

and then obviously his resurrection to come after that.

We're gonna take time each day to think about different

texts in God's word that give us a picture what was going on during that week to

help us put ourselves in the shoes of people around those scenes and in the process let

those texts drive us to pray.

As we reflect on the events of Holy Week to think together about how they help us understand our

relationship with God and lead us to pray before God.

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week the time when Christians across the globe

remember the days leading to Jesus' death and resurrection. To help you reflect

on these core truths of our salvation, you can join David Platt on this eight-day

journey from Palm Sunday to the empty tomb of a resurrection Sunday.

As David said, putting us in the shoes of those who walked with Jesus on the road to the cross.
