Experience Easter:: Monday

Each day this week we will offer a reading from scripture that chronicles the events of Jesus during that day of the Holy Week. The beginning of the week there is not much that is intense that is going on, but Jesus is setting up the end of the week. He is preparing his disciples, picking fights with religious people and teaching with symbolism.

Make sure to check this blog every day as we Experience Easter together and join us this Sunday at 11:00 AM at NCCS for our Easter service.

It might do you some good to listen to the podcast from the sermon yesterday if you missed it. You can also stream it here. This sermon sets up the events of Palm Sunday which was yesterday.

The reading for today is John 12:20-50. There is a lot of set up here. Those around Jesus are confused as to exactly who he is, but he is making claims the he is God here. We can relate to that. Many times we are confused as to what God is doing, but he is always at work doing things to bring us into a deeper relationship with him.
