Summary

He called himself God, but wore the clothes of a man. He called himself Messiah, but never marshalled an army. He was regarded as a king, but his only crown was of thorns. How do you explain such a man? One way is to take a walk. His walk. His final walk. In And the Angels Were Silent, Max Lucado follows Christ's footsteps during the last week of his life -- from the beginning of his journey out of Jericho up to the glittering city of Jerusalem, from the olive garden of Gethsemane to the trial, from Pilate's palace to Golgotha's cross. Walk with Christ toward the cross and decide for yourself who he is. Decide how you will answer when Jesus asks, "Who do you say I am?" Decide what verdict you will render when you look into his eyes. Book jacket.
