Witnesses to the Crucifixion

WHAT MIGHT YOU SAY IF YOU WITNESSED THE DEATH OF JESUS CHRIST? God sent redemption to us in the form of a man-His son, Jesus. Historical accounts speak of Him, and God's signs and wonders testify that all things were created through Him. And Scripture itself, inspired by the very breath of God, foretells and unfolds His story. In Witnesses to the Crucifixion, Ricky Carstensen retells the death and resurrection of the Messiah through six stand-alone stories that portray perceptions of the key elements physically closest to Jesus during His trial, death, burial, and resurrection: the crown of thorns, the purple robe, the three nails, the spear, the burial shroud, and the stone that covered the entrance to Jesus' tomb. If you could give each of these objects a heart and a voice, what might their testimonies say? Included in this story is a touching epilogue written by James Doucette that creatively imagines the origin of Christ's cross. This book is for an audience of all ages but its depth is personal and far reaching. As you read through these pages, sense the power of transformation through the blood of Christ. And expect your own transformation as you begin witnessing what God will do through His son.
