Wright of being a captive in the ivory towers of academia. Wright's scholarship is well-known, but so is his devotion to the people in the pews. His new book Christians at the Cross: Finding Hope in the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus walks readers through Holy Week, elucidating the Passion narrative with Wright's characteristic allusions and rich understanding of the biblical text.

If anyone is wondering about some sort of weekly devotional material this season I would highly recommend this book for a weekly meditation on Christ. Rating: - More Beautiful Music by N.T. Wright I just got my hands on N.T. Wright's newest book, Christians at the Cross: Finding Hope in the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus. I made it about halfway through last night. The book is essentially a collection of a series of sermons delivered during Holy Week 2007 in the town of Easington Colliery in the Northeast of England, a town who's economic lifeline, a mammoth coal mining pit that employed thousands, was shut down in 1993, leading to more than a decade of hopelessness in the community, economic ...
