What was going though Jesus’ mind as he approached Jerusalem for the last time?

The Psalms of Ascents (Psalms 120–134), sung by the Jewish people down the ages on pilgrimages to the city, would surely have been uppermost. Shining a vivid light on his own journey to the cross, they also held promise for those who would believe in his name.

Taking each of the Psalms in turn, Pilgrimage and Promise explores their significance for Jesus and considers their meaning for us today. With devotional prayers and guided responses, we are encouraged to apply their promises to our own lives, and to follow daily after Jesus in his costly but joyful, and ultimately victorious, journey of ascent.
