It is a simple theological truth: We become more like Jesus when we
draw close to him. "People of the Passion "unpacks this tenet in a
powerful examination of some of the main characters of Jesus' final
days: Mary, Mother of Jesus; Mary Magdalene; Pilate; Nicodemus;
Peter; and Judas. Throughout each chapter, Dr. Randall explores our
perceptions and our knowledge of these individuals, pointing out
how each played significant roles in exposing themes of
faithfulness, gratitude, conflict, power, and betrayal.
"People of the Passion "calls us to embrace the "grace and
opportunity of Lent," for when we pause to examine our hearts and
spirits within our collective narrative of fallen humanity, we are
reminded that "we are an Easter people." And in this, we celebrate
Christ's resurrection, understanding that everything about our
redemption hinges upon the most significant event in human history:
Easter morning.
