Max Lucado wonderfully weaves modern day stories with Jesus' last week in And the Angels Were Silent. I think almost everyone will find nuggets to take away from this book to help with their daily walk and, while this book is short and could be read in a sitting or two, I think it is better read in short spurts and then pondered on. There is also a Readers Guide with questions to prompt further thought about each chapter along with bible verses to direct further study.

Much like the other book of Mr. Lucado's that I have read, Facing Your Giants, it might be a good book to put on your nightstand to read a few chapters each evening.

Perfect for a morning devotional. Each chapter will mean something different to each person. Although it is about the last week of Jesus' life, every word made me stop and think. Everyone I have recommended this book to has been touched in a different way.

This book was very moving and had great stories to tell. I really enjoyed reading it and I was moved to tears several times!

Max Lucado has done it again! This book was very touching and guiding one toward peace in their life. I absolutely love this book and so did the person I purchased it for! Encore!

Love all of Max Lucado's books. We used this book for a group study for Lent. Awesome book and easy read!

Purchased through Amazon books.
Very inspirational book. Well written and easy reading.

I have always enjoyed Max Lucado's writing and his take on the great stories of the Bible. This book in particular was especially timely, as I bought it at Easter to do as a ladies Bible study at my church. We are still working our way through it, but find that he brings the events of Jesus' final week on earth to a different level in our everyday lives. I like the way he uses current stories to emphasize the message of each of the verses found in Matthew, chapter 20. He makes us very conscious of our Christian walk and the impact it has on others.

Not quite finished w/this book, but it is very insightful and helpful. I think all of Max Lucado's books are excellent. I love his style of writing.

Anything you read by Max is a blessing. He is not only a believer but he is led by the Holy Spirit when he writes. This is an awesome book for which you will be blessed and moved. His writings have never disappointed me and are inspired and caused me at times to think and refect on my realtionship with the Lord. You can't go wrong with anything you purchase by him and will find his writings well worth reading and reflecting upon. Be blessed!!!

I have read this book now for the second time. This is very well written. Max Lucado really did a wonderful job when he wrote this book. I have looked back throught it and plan to read it again one day. You will enjoy it, so do not delay buying it, go ahead and get it. You will not be sorry for this purchase.
