Man and Messiah, Love and Joy

Jerusalem, around 32 AD. In an upper room before the start of Passover, 13 men gather to share a meal that will be, for one of them, his last supper. That humble setting is the beginning of a story well known to many. A story told in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John of the end of Jesus' ministry on Earth. Separately, each Gospel is a compelling and thought provoking account in its own right. Yet, a story more colorful still can be told by combining details from across the four Gospels and melting them into a single, continuous narrative of those days. Man and Messiah, Love and Joy provides the crucible for a retelling of the Passion story using only text pulled straight from the Gospels. Its collective text offers a fresh read on a familiar sequence of events that can be picked up and read over and over. From the accounts of that simple upper room gathering and the days that followed, has sprung generations of tradition, doctrine, conflict, reflection, and hope. This is a story worth reading again.
