“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer
Today’s Reading: Psalm 49:1-12
Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:
LORD God,
I thank you
I thank you for the victory of Jesus!
The tomb is empty.
By your grace,
through faith,
I will live and reign through Him.
Amen.

Lent Reading:
The High Priest Questions Jesus
Meanwhile,
the high priest questioned Jesus
about his disciples and his teaching.
“I have spoken openly to the world,”
Jesus replied.
“I always taught in synagogues
or at the temple,
where all the Jews come together.
I said nothing in secret.
Why question me?
Ask those who heard me.
Surely they know what I said.”
When Jesus said this,
one of the officials nearby slapped him in the face.
“Is this the way you answer the high priest?”
he demanded.
“If I said something wrong,”
Jesus replied,
“testify as to what is wrong.
But if I spoke the truth,
why did you strike me?”
Then Annas sent him bound
to Caiaphas the high priest.
(John 18:19-24).

This is love:
not that we loved God,
but that he loved us and sent his Son
as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
(1 John 4:10 NIV)

Ideal for the Season of Lent
Watch the triumphal entry of the donkey-riding king through the eyes of Marcus Longinus, the centurion charged with keeping the streets from erupting into open rebellion.
Look behind the scenes at the political plotting of King Herod, known as the scheming Fox for his ruthless shrewdness.
Get a front-row seat to the confrontation between the Jewish high priest Caiaphas and the Roman governor Pontius Pilate.
Understand as never before the horror of the decision to save a brutal terrorist in order to condemn the peaceful Jew to death.
