Meeting Jesus

Meeting Jesus by Elizabeth Rundle was published by CWR Publishing in September 2007 and is our 10814th best seller. The ISBN for Meeting Jesus is 9781853454424.

In this sixth title within the Cover to Cover Lent Group Study Guide, Elizabeth Rundle encourages us to consider seven Bible characters who had life-changing encounters with Jesus.
With opening icebreakers, suggestions for worship and discussion starters, this guide is ideal for small group study and the material requires minimal preparation by the leader.

The stories of Jarius' daughter, the rich young man, Lazarus, the woman bent double, blind Bartimaeus, Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea are explored.

Although we only have records of Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea being in Jerusalem at the time of Jesus' crucifixion, we do know that all devout Jews would make the annual pilgrimage there for the Passover celebrations if they possibly could. Elizabeth helps us 'imagine' what all the characters might have felt had they seen what happened to Jesus, and uses this to encourage us to consider what Jesus' amazing sacrifice means to us.
