Imagine being one of Jesus' disciples on the Friday that He was crucified. Imagine their pain, horror, and despair. How did they survive the worst day of their lives? How does a mother keep her faith as she holds her bedridden child's hand while the days turn into weeks and the weeks into months? How does an out-of-work man stay strong when it seems like every single job in the world is filled but the bills keep coming? All of us find ourselves in the waiting room of life at some point, wondering how we are going to live through a loss-a loss of our health, of a loved one, of a job, of our marriage. What About Saturday? looks at the day between the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, the time between tragedy and triumph. Although we spend a lot of our lives in "Saturday," reeling in shock and waiting desperately for a resurrection experience, we can use this time to learn and grow. The Bible does not tell us much about that specific Saturday. In fact, there are only two direct references to it, for a total of seven verses. But those seven verses, when viewed with other verses throughout the Bible, hold a great deal of wisdom and a tremendous amount of healing and hope. Here you will find a close examination of those passages and discover how you can use your Saturdays to grow even closer to God and learn about His will for you.
