About The Day After His Crucifixion by Merikay McLeod
While the crucifixion/resurrection story has long been told through the lens of male disciples, The Day After His Crucifixion centers on the often overlooked, yet deeply impactful testimonies of women who Yeshua the Nazarene healed and helped and drew into his circle. Through their eyewitness reports familiar gospel events spring to life.
As women usually do following a devastating loss, these followers of the Promised One gather the day after Yeshua’s crucifixion to comfort each other through sharing food and memories of his powerful life and ministry. Their personal, heart-felt stories reinforce faith and offer comfort.
They reveal Yeshua as they experienced him – the young, vibrant teacher and healer. Each experience is unique. Taken together, their stories embody the reality of forgiveness, acceptance, belonging, and the message of God’s kingdom come.
