“From Thursday evening's Passover meal through Friday's dark hours on the cross, the light of Christ continued to illuminate the Truth. With intense clarity, the Teacher was showing us by example the greatest lessons of his ministry: service, obedience, humility and forgiveness. Through Christ, the full spectrum of God's grace is reflected in beautiful hues upon our lives." - forward to Colors of Grace
