Description

Were You There? takes readers back to the last days of Jesus and explores the price paid by the disciples and others to follow him. By exploring what it meant to be part of a community in those days, and then to turn one's back on family and town, Saunders gives readers a clearer sense of the scandal of following Jesus. A detailed explanation of the process of crucifixion and an extended meditation for Good Friday help readers experience the last moments of Jesus' life on earth. Study questions at the end of each chapter make this an excellent resource for parish study groups.
