The Story of Easter

The story of Christs sacrificial death and glorious resurrection is retold in beautiful illustrations and text. Based on the Gospels, this book tells of Jesus last days on earth: His teaching and healing, His return to Jerusalem, and the events of the week leading up to the humiliation of His trial and crucifixion. The major focus of this book is on Christs resurrection. It presents the sequence of events in such a way that readers will readily understand the chronology and the significance of the circumstances and people involved. The main point of the text of The Story of Easter is to teach children about Gods grace. It is through Jesus suffering and death on our behalf, not through our own effort, that we are forgiven for our sins and assured of eternal life.
