The woman who anointed Jesus’ feet, tells of how her shame gives way to forgiveness and healing.

Simon of Cyrene speaks of his thoughts and feelings as he comes face to face with Jesus and is pulled from the crowd to carry the cross.
The Centurion speaks of anger and confusion as he watches the crucifixion, until he experiences Jesus’ love pouring down from the cross.
Two friends on the road to Emmaus meet with a stranger, who turns out to be no stranger at all and their hearts are set ablaze!

    Come, See This Man:

    Meditations for Lent and Easter

    By Kay Brown

    What people are saying about this book:

    These ‘gems’ are the result of many hours of listening. Reading each little cameo, my understanding of biblical times was awakened. I have been taken into the lives of people Jesus met and my spirit deeply stirred. My prayer is that all who read them will find the same blessing.

    Marion Balish, Elder, Church of Scotland

    A new perspective on things can deepen the understanding of the knowledge we already have. These Bible passages are well known. But seeing them from a different perspective gives a fresh impetus to them. I found myself reading them with renewed awareness of God working in MY life. We can use them to reflect on our own relationship with God and with his Word. They highlighted, for me, my relationship with the Lord Jesus.

    Anne McKean, Lead Catechist for Special Religious Development, Roman Catholic Church, Falkirk

    Reading these meditations, I feel the Holy Spirit drawing me in completely, as though I am there, in the middle of all that is taking place. They are thought provoking, and have brought me closer to God. Inspirational!

    Patricia Martin, Elder, Church of Scotland

    For a bystander or a player in the final drama of Jesus' life, the familiar events must have had personal meaning. Observations, questions and emotions tumble over each other in these subtle cameos of characters known or imagined. As part of worship - in Holy Week or other times - they will touch the heart and draw the hearer gently into new ways of seeing, beyond the blinkers of familiarity.

    Rev Peter Neilson MA BD MTh, Mission Consultant

    I have really enjoyed reading these meditations. They have a touching simplicity which is also profoundly challenging.

    They made me consider anew the fact that encountering Jesus now, as then, is a life changing experience.

    They would make a wonderful series for Lent Bible studies!

    Rev Melville Crosthwaite BD Dip Ed Dip Min, Minister of Larbert East Church of Scotland
