I am now entering year three of Tackling the TBR. Slowly but surely I have made big strides in getting by TBR under control. When I first started in 2019, my TBR was topping out at over 5,000 books. I don't know that I will ever get below 500, but a #BookDragon can dream!
I will be posting on the 7th, 14th, 21st, and the last day of the month. Feel free to join in if you'd like!

The last couple weeks have been crazy and I have only been able to post things I already had scheduled. But I finally have a breather today and will be around this weekend, FINALLY!

Announcement: I have added a linky to this post and will do so for future Tackling the TBRs as well. A few people expressed interest in this in one of my 'goals' posts so I thought this would be an easy way for us to all connect. I post weekly, but feel free to do whatever works for you - weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, whatever!
The link will be open the entire week.

God bless you on this joyous and beautiful Easter morning.
As mentioned in previous posts, I faithfully read The Final Days of Jesus every year starting on Palm Sunday.
It is a fantastic way to see the four books of the Gospel side by side and to read the accounts of the disciples as they watched everything they thought they knew disappear in the most traumatic way possible.
Yet that morning, the third day, Jesus rose as He said He would. He appeared to His followers who had lost hope, had given up, gone into hiding, and/or began the journey home. Yet He did not give up on them, and He has not given up on us.
Happy Easter!

P.S. While Matthew is probably my fave book of the Gospel, I love John as well, and the shade he throws in Peter's direction by saying he outran him to the tomb. You have to admire John's details.

"The four Gospels contain eyewitness accounts (and first-hand reports) of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus."
