Join us for short, daily Lenten meditations to help you draw closer to God in prayer and scripture reading as we prepare our hearts leading up to Resurrection Sunday!

Saturday of Holy Week is another day the Bible is quiet about. The disciples were no doubt devastated, their entire world-view shattered after Jesus was tortured, crucified, and buried.

Today we are going to reflect on two unlikely brothers in Christ: Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea. Both men were wealthy. Both were Pharisees. Both were members of the Sanhedrin council that convicted Jesus of blasphemy, ultimately leading to his crucifixion by the Romans. Both hid their loyalty to Jesus. But late on Good Friday, these two came out of hiding and publicly took Jesus' body, carefully prepared it for burial with spices purchased by Nicodemus, and placed it lovingly in a tomb belonging to Joseph.
