There will also be a short devotional to guide you through those passages and see the significance of Jesus' last days on earth.

This is not how God wants us to live; He wants us to unleash ourselves from the past and trust Him with the future. Romans 8 promises us that He will turn all things for good, even the pain from the past. Over the next 30 days, we will look at Psalms, which will teach us how to express our pain to God, praise Him through our circumstances, and trust Him with the future.
