The Last Supper
We are in week 2 of our series “The Road To Easter”, where we are looking at some of the most significant episodes of Jesus’s life that led to the cross and the resurrection. While the cross and the empty tomb of resurrection are the end of that road, Easter is the culmination of God’s eternity-spanning plan to rescue us, His people, from the clutches of sin and death and give us new life, a hope, and a future wrapped in His never-ending love. And as we take an extend look at the interactions and events that led into Easter, I believe there is so much we can learn from and grow through in our mission to live out the hope and resurrection of Jesus in our own lives and share that hope with the world around us!
This week we are going to dive into the deeper part of the pool as we look at “The Last Supper”, one of the more universally life-altering events in Jesus’s life! This particular message is a little more “academic” and detailed, because the significance surrounding the Last Supper, stretching thousands of years back to the Exodus of Israel, cannot be understated in it’s importance to our relationship to God and the world around us today. Whole libraries of books have been written on this subject alone so we will only be doing a fly-by overview of this but I can assure you that if you can hang with us on this one, it will be a blessing to your heart! Alright then, let’s get to it!
