Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner's Guide to Holy Week Free Audiobook Download by Amy-Jill Levine
It was the first time I had ever heard the story of the passion of Jesus from the point of view of one who watched him die. The narrator, Nan Mcnamara, is a female voice that has a soft Irish accent. This audiobook tells how Jesus enters into his passion and crowns it with his death and resurrection. It was an amazing experience as I listened to this audiobook for the first time.
"Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner's Guide to Holy Week is an audiobook that explores one of the most important events in Christian history. It reviews the story, describes the characters and their motives, and provides a new way to experience this momentous time of year."
Jesus's passion is not an event that happened in the past. Rather, it is an event that continues to shape our lives today. It is a story of God's love and sacrifice for humanity, but one that must be told anew each day. Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner's Guide to Holy Week follows the journey of one person who arrives on Good Friday at Calvary and begins a weeklong search for how Jesus' last hours can speak to their own life. In this narrative audiobook, author Amy-Jill Levine uses prayer, meditation, and other spiritual practices to help her reader enter into the Passion from different angles.
This audiobook is a personal journey through the Passion narrative with biblical scholar and author, Amy-Jill Levine.
This audiobook is a beginner's guide to Holy Week: an author's intent to provide listeners with an entry point into the Passion story for the novice reader. It includes a brief history of the church year, explanations of how Easter and Lent function in the Christian calendar and how they are celebrated in modern western culture. Levine includes her own personal reflections on Easter as well as those of others who are familiar with this story and its meaning.
The Passion of Jesus is a very powerful story. It's a story about how the world could be changed by love without the need for violence or law enforcement. It's a story about how fear and anger can be transformed into compassion and grace. And it's a story that continuously stirs my heart and inspires me to keep fighting for social justice.
