From the Easter Devotional Series named one of Gary Thomas’ top ten “Favorite Reads of 2022”

There's a gap in our lives. The world may prepare well for Christmas, but Easter is different. We rarely dedicate a long period of time to prepare for Easter.

The second book of Pastor Brad Goad’s Easter Devotional trilogy fills that gap. The Morning He Was Tried journeys through the six illegal trials of Jesus on his way from the garden to the cross.

“Brad Goad is truly an outstanding servant, a gifted writer, a man of wisdom, integrity, dedication, and creativity. His study is thoughtful and researched, conversational yet poignant like the author himself. Because of his wide range of ministry, he has seen and experienced from many angles the human side of the inevitable trials we endure. This comes across in his depiction of Jesus’s trials. He infuses the scenarios with emotion and humanity, providing a wonderful on-ramp into the Easter season and preparing our hearts for the most Holy three days of the year!”

– Dr. Ed Young, Senior Pastor, Second Baptist Church, Houston, Texas

Based on a live, three-week presentation to an adult ministry, the book study leads Christians through the Gospels and into each of the unjust trials, where religious leaders sought with increasing urgency to put an end to Jesus.

“Superb pacing. This devotional slows us down so that we grasp the gravity of each moment, person, and element involved in the illegal trials of Jesus—and the significance in the calling of our Savior.”

– Scott Belin, Director of Digital Content, Hope Media Group

One trial after another showed the lengths those threatened by Jesus and His ministry would go to silence the One whom John the Baptist called the Lamb of God. As readers endure the six trials of Jesus, these pages prepare their hearts for the grandest celebration of all: the Light of the Resurrection.

Join the journey through six gripping trials to prepare for Easter.

“A must-read primer to the Easter story. I’ve been a follower of Christ for many years but never envisioned the degree of the illegal proceedings assaulted against Christ before the crucifixion. Brad’s compelling writing style will keep you engaged in the travesty of that dark morning. You will leave with a personal reflection concerning your own endearment with Christ. You’ll never again see the Easter story the same, which makes the glory of His resurrection even more magnificent.”

– Pam Kanaly, Cofounder of Arise Single Moms since 2002, a global outreach to single mothers raising children alone

"An accessible and succinct meditation on the events surrounding the final days of Jesus' time on this Earth; from arrest to verdict. Goad paints a beautiful picture of the steadfastness of Christ amidst the inevitable and unthinkable, ultimately pointing our hearts to a place of deep consideration, especially in the season of resurrection." – Jayme McGhan, Executive Artistic Director, A.D. Players at the George Theater

“Remarkably eye-opening and yet gently convicting. I see myself in many of the people who played a part in the darkest day in history. Judgment of others is falling away and I am looking at myself in the mirror, heartbroken, yet hopeful. The love of Christ is piercing and personal.” – Cecie Turlington, Executive Director, Serenity Retreat

“A powerful and deliberate walk through the six illegal trials of Jesus and the mistreatment of the King of the Jews as He faces the brutality of scourging and crucifixion. The tragedy that unfolds brings the reader through several emotions: anger, grief, disgust, and conviction. But Goad concludes this worthy devotional with the teaching that Jesus was born for this. He is our hope, the perfect Lamb of God.” – Jason Ritchie, Author, Oh God, Why Can’t I Stop?
