Jesus crossed their path
The scene takes place in Israel during the Roman era. You walk down a dusty alley and emerge into the lively square of a Galilean village. The crowd begins to get agitated and voices exclaim: “It’s the rabbi!” » At first everything is confusing, then suddenly the one called Jesus stops right where you are standing. Your eyes meet and he returns your gaze with a mixture of gentleness and intensity. You feel the pain leave your body as he reaches out to touch you. You perceive the love in his words.
Twenty stories teeming with life and details transport readers to the heart of familiar biblical scenes, allowing them to be rediscovered with an unexpected freshness. After each story, a reflection and a prayer invite us to draw on our own moments of intimacy with Jesus to discern what the scene would have for us to discover today.
