As we prepare for Holy Week, worship music can help us enter into the meaning of Jesus’ sacrifice. Christianity Today invited their staff to share their favorite pieces of music for contemplating the Cross and celebrating the Resurrection. You can see the staff’s picks and descriptions here. Or you can go straight to the Spotify playlist.
