The Chosen: Not My Will…

De: Jerry B. Jenkins

Narrado por: John Sackville

In Not My Will… Jerry Jenkins invites you into the tumultuous final days of Jesus’ earthly ministry—what’s become known as Holy Week. Beginning with His triumphant entry into Jerusalem astride a donkey’s colt, the story covers a side of Jesus we haven’t seen before: His righteous rage at the moneychangers in the temple.

The story delves deeply into the minds of the disciples and other close followers of Jesus, including the fear and scheming of both High Priest Caiaphas and Governor Pontius Pilate and his dream-tormented wife.

Judas’s haunting betrayal looms while Jesus faces His darkest night of the soul in Gethsemane, where His surrender to His Father and then to the Romans comes at an unspeakable cost. In vivid detail and with emotional depth, this novel captures the heartbreak, hope, and humanity of the most pivotal week in the history of the world.

More than retelling the story, Not My Will… takes you deeper into the hearts and minds of the show’s many intriguing characters like Mary Magdalene, Pontius Pilate and his wife Claudia, and Judas.

The sorrow, the deep sorrow in the heart of Jesus,

I was deeply moved by the sorrow in His grieving heart. He felt so alone . We are called today to be comforter souls, to comfort Him with our love.

Woe to you Scribes and Pharisees!

My favorite book so far from the series! And favorite season of The Chosen! Might cry during season 6.

Beautifully written & Read

I loved the show & hearing the book helped me understand the quotes and events during this part of Jesus’ life.

So Good
