"Twelve young men were walking with their leader along a road about 30 miles north of Galilee, in a hilly area where the river Jordan had its source. As they walked, their leader put two questions to them, and the answer to the second one would have profound consequences not just for them but eventually for the whole world. The leader was Jesus, The twelve young men (and they were young, most of them barely in their 20s) were His disciples.'
This book follows the journey of Jesus and His followers to Jerusalem — the story of the culmination of His ministry in the events of Good Friday and Easter, the story of the 'Good News of God' for the whole world. It is this story that shapes the faith and life of every Christian. As we reflect on these events, like the disciples we can experience the awakening of faith in Jesus and hear the challenge to follow Him, wherever He leads. With them we can tread the path to Gethsemane and Golgotha, and on to the empty tomb and new life.
