Scripture Reading Plan
This week’s scripture passages focus on Jesus’ interrogation. Pay attention to how he chose not to argue with his accusers despite being unjustly treated. Why do you think he behaved that way? How does it reflect his character and the way of his Kingdom?
Also, notice the reactions of Jesus’ disciples as he was arrested. Can you relate to their reactions? How would you respond differently if you were in their shoes?
Reading Plan for this week:
Mar 30 (Sunday) Matthew 26:26-46
Mar 31 (Monday) Matthew 26:47-68
April 1 (Tuesday) Mark 14:43-65
April 2 (Wednesday) Mark 14:66-15:15
April 3 (Thursday) Luke 22:47-71
April 4 (Friday) Luke 23:1-25
April 5 (Saturday) Luke 23:26-43
