“ACTION BIBLE GASTER STORY ILLUSTRATIONS BY SERGIO CARIELLO GENERAL ECITOR DOUG MAWES David@CookSTEEL YOURSELF FOR ACTION... People don't usually think of Jesus this way, but Jesus is the original action hero. Everyone is so * ‘impressed when Superman turns back time, but Jesus created time. Superman may save the day with his strength, but jesus saved the whole world with His death and resurrection. The New Testament is jam-packed with stories of Jesus's amazing feats—calming storms, raising people from the dead, feeding thousands of people with a little bit of bread and fish. But the most incredible things He did took place over the course of just a few short weeks—when He chose to die for the sins of the world, came back to life, and gave everyone who believes in Him eternal life. The Action Bible Easter Story is more than just an exciting tale. It's the real-life story of how God changed the world—and our lives—forever. And He wants you to be an action hero too—to be brave enough to follow Him as He uses you to change the world. How will you answer God's call to action? Itell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what | have been doing. He will do even greater things than these... —Jesus Christ John 14:12)JESUS’ FINAL DAYS \ PALM SUNDAY BASED ON LUKE 19:56-46; MATTHEW 28BIP nnn MONEY TROUBLES BASED ON LIKE 20:20-26; HARK 12.
