Former home school student Katherine Loop designed a pre-Easter study, Jesus: The Life Giver, that is absolutely wonderful!  What I loved most is that it wasn’t a study of Passion Week, but a look at the heart of the One who is passionate for our hearts.

I originally found it on Miiko Gibson’s blog (she always has the best holiday links!). I highly recommend ordering it from CurrClick.

As we completed the readings,

we added paper flowers with symbols to our dish.

By the end, we had a wonderful “garden” on our dining room sideboard that reminded us of God’s great love for us in sending Jesus.
