How To Prepare for Good Friday and Easter?

Chris Brauns with some good thoughts here:

Good Friday and Easter are only a few weeks away.  Perhaps, you have already been meditating and preparing.  If not, I would offer one approach:

1. Read the Gospel of Mark as many times as possible.  It’s the briefest of the 4 Gospel accounts and it moves so quickly that if you prayerfully consider the content you will be amazed at what you see of the Savior.
2. Order and read Tim Keller’s recent book, King’s Cross: The Story of the World in the Life of Jesus.  Keller’s book is a reflection on the Gospel of Mark and will be a wonderful supplement for time in the Gospel of Mark.
3. Journal brief thoughts (a sentence or two is enough) each time you read and prayerfully study.
