You’ve heard the stories of Jesus’s encounters with people throughout his ministry here on earth. But have you ever wondered what it would’ve been like to be on the other side of Jesus? To experience his eye contact, his promises, his miracles in person?

That’s the journey we’ll take together in this 8-part devotional with the people who encountered him first-hand as our guides.

Each character will tell us about what it felt like to be with Jesus and what that means for each of us as we prepare to celebrate the fundamental event of our faith, the death and resurrection of Jesus on Easter.  

Week 1 of Encounters with Jesus was sent out on February 14. Catch up on all the stories:
