This was definitely not a quick read nor should it have been, and actually in quite the opposite sometimes to my own chagrin I found myself slowing down and trying to best experience and take in ever individual point of this devotional and journey through Jesus’s journey towards his inevitable death at the hands of the Roman kingdom that now embodies the time of lent leading up into his rebirth on Easter. Honestly even though I’ve studied and relearned this essential part to the Christian faith and denomination as a whole my whole life, but the excellent and digestible ways Terri was able to break up and break down this small but hugely significant time of faith, personal meditation and internal and external appreciation. Even if it took me a bit after Easter to fully finish through I couldn’t be happier with the message and the journey.
