Were You There?: Finding Ourselves At The Foot Of The Cross
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
"In the Passion of Jesus we hear the story of one person but the echoes of many," writes Erik Kolbell, "for although we read it to find out who Jesus was, it is in the reading of those other characters that we find out who we are." Perfect for the Lenten season or throughout the year, "Were You There?" provides thoughtful meditations about Peter, the slave whose ear is severed, Judas, the woman who annointed Jesus, Pilate, Herod, Simon of Cyrene, the centurion at the cross, Joseph of Arimathea, Mary, and many others.
