Summary
Winner of the 2022 American Book Fest's Best Book Award: Religion, Christianity
Throughout Holy Week, two competing approaches to peacemaking collide. What if we've embraced the wrong one?
At the start of Holy Week, tears streamed down Jesus' face as he cried out, "If only you knew the things that make for peace." From that moment, until a week later when he triumphantly declared, "Peace be with you," Jesus spent each day confronting injustice, calling out oppressors, and contending for peace.
But what if—despite all our familiarity with the events of Holy Week—we still don't know how Jesus makes peace? And what if—despite clinging to the cross of Christ for our salvation—we've actually embraced a different approach to peacemaking? One that justifies killing enemies. One whose methods include nailing criminals to crosses.
We desperately need to recover the radical vision of peacemaking that Jesus embodied throughout Holy Week. And we urgently need to be trained in his way of making peace. So, come. Let's journey together day-by-day through Jesus' final week and discover anew why he is called the Prince of Peace.

insightful and challenging
I listened to this book during Holy Week 2022. It was a challenging and thought provoking accompaniment to my own devotions. I appreciated the perceptive and sometimes novel insights offered. Although the lens "The things that make for peace" cannot capture all the richness of Holy Week, the author uses it effectively to challenge his readers to walk the way of Jesus. I will be recommending this to others.
I received a copy of this audiobook from the author in exchange for an honest review.
