In these first chapters, we see Jesus revealed in glory. No longer the quiet teacher walking the roads of Galilee, He stands as the risen Lord, full of light and strength. His eyes burn like fire, His face shines brighter than the sun, and His voice sounds like…

We see the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, surrounded by those He has redeemed. Their song rises like thunder, like ocean waves crashing in joy. It is a song no one else can learn, a song of love and victory. These are the faithful ones who follow the…

We enter the upper room with Jesus, where His hour has come. Everything He was sent to do is complete, and now He walks toward the cross. Though the world rejects Him, He loves His own to the very end. We marvel that the Son of God kneels…
