     | 771 views

    Everyone faces times of adversity but it is how we view and respond to the adversity that determines how those times will affect us. The disciples experienced this when Jesus was arrested and crucified. Their response can teach us about responding to adverse times.

Bracketed by Palm Sunday on one end and Easter Sunday on the other, this is the most important week in ...read more
