"Today Jesus gets to sit and eat with the people who mean the most to him. These are friends who have walked with him for the past three years, who have loved him through everything. Martha, Mary, Lazarus, his apostles, the ones who know him best, right now. His chosen family.

Each one of them has struggled with the reality of who Jesus is, and how to love him."
