JERUSALEM, Israel – Most Christians know the Easter story well from what the gospels tell us about that earth-shattering week: Jesus came to Jerusalem, ate the Passover Seder with his disciples, was arrested and sentenced to death, crucified on a cross, then was resurrected from a garden tomb.

In late 2022, my wife Susan and I moved here to be part of the CBN News Middle East Bureau in Jerusalem, so Easter of 2023 was the first chance we had to go to the sites so central to that week.

We recorded that experience so you can also see those places through a newcomer's eyes. Click on the video above to join the journey.
