I’d like to take this opportunity to suggest some books to help prepare the heart for Easter. It is a great time to meditate on the cross, the blood of Jesus and the resurrection and what they mean to the Christian.
Here are some books which to consider:
Because He Lives: The Hope, Promise & Truth of the Resurrection, Calvary Chapel Publishing 2004 (ISBN: 0-967666-8-X)
The Cross of Jesus, Warren W. Weirsbe. Baker Books, Grand Rapids, Michigan1997 (ISBN: 0-8010-5781-7)
Classic Sermons on the Resurrection of Christ and Classic Sermons on the Cross of Christ, both compiled by Warren W. Wiersbe. Kregel Publications, Grand Rapids, Michigan 1990. (ISBN: 0-8254-4042-4 and 0-8254-4040-8 respectively).
The Power of the Blood of the Cross, Andrew Murray. CLC Publications, Fort Washington, PA 2003. (ISBN: 0-87508-381-1)
Of course, reading the Bible and studying the passages about the betrayal, trial, crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus is the best way to prepare to celebrate that He Lives!
