We’re in Holy Week, the week before Easter where we remember and walk through the events that led up to the Jesus’s death and resurrection. BridgePointe’s staff will be posting a devotional video each day this week to help us focus our hearts and attention on Jesus and what He did for us.

We hope you’ll also join us for our Good Friday and Easter services. Find out all you need to know here: bpri.church/events

SATURDAY

Lukas brings us today's Holy Week devotion from a cemetary in Providence. He looks at the passange in Matthew 27:62-65 and helps us revisit the day that Jesus lay in the tomb. The day after Good Friday and before Easter Sunday where He was dead. He aks us, how do we relate to God when things are depressingly normal?

Watch this video and then join us tomorrow for our Easter services as we celebrate the morning after, and the amazing end of this story. https://bpri.church/easter

FRIDAY

Today Jesus stands trial and Mike takes us there in the account in Mark. Innocent of every charge except being the Son of God, Jesus endures false accusations and suffers violence at the hands of those he came to save. In his reflection, Mike encourages us to come to Jesus with our guilt.

THURSDAY

On Thursday we find Jesus and His disciples getting ready to celebrate the Passover, or The Feast of Unleavened Bread. It's during this meal that Jesus takes the bread and wine uses them to explain to His disciples that He was going to die. Ulana reflects on why it's the Feast of Unleavened Bread and how that helps us understand Jesus' sacrifice.

Wednesday

The Bible doesn’t have a record of events on the Wednesday before Good Friday. In today’s devotion, Jacob looks at Jesus’ humanity and need for rest. He asks us to reflect on how we need to make space for God in our life.

TUESDAY

Today Rachel reads the passage where Jesus talks about his upcoming death with His disciples. In preparing them, Jesus uses the illustration of a seed that needs to die to bring new life. Rachel asks us what we need to die to in order to experience new life for ourselves.

MONDAY

Keith brings us Monday’s Holy Week devotion from the Stop & Shop parking lot in East Providence, helping us to imagine the busy marketplace that Jesus walked through. He asks us to reflect on what it is that we need to clear out from our lives that keeps us from God’s presence.
