We don’t like to think of death. In fact, we’re enslaved by the fear of it. In these devotions, Elyse Fitzpatrick teaches us how to remember death without fear—by remembering the one who tasted death so that we never will. Friend of Sinners is a lavish feast for your Lenten fast.
Endorsements must be brief, which means I cannot share all the ways this devotional impacted me, but let me just say there were many moments when it was impossible to read Elyse’s depiction of Jesus with a dry eye. You will be impacted again and again in unforgettable ways as the season of Lent takes on deeper meaning with each page. I will be sharing this with many.
I love how Elyse kindles our imaginations enough to enable us to step into the sandals of those we’ve perhaps glossed over during our Bible readings. As you read this book, I’d wager you might find yourself pausing to pray, repent, and sometimes just say, ‘Wow!’ I know I did.
