Synopsis

The Upper Room reveals a quiet side of Jesus. This devotional study invites readers to glimpse the intimate moments of friendship around the last hours before the cross.

Framed as a meditation on the nameless supporters and humble hosts who kept faith and hospitality at the center of Jesus’ life, the book traces how ordinary lives intersected with extraordinary grace. It emphasizes themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the power of small acts to sustain a larger mission.


  • Explore the role of “the goodman of the house” and other quiet partners in the gospel story.

  • See how personal hospitality becomes a form of faithful witness and care.

  • Reflect on the tension between public fame and private devotion in Jesus’ circle.

  • Consider how sacrifice and remembrance shape Christian tradition and worship.



Ideal for readers who want a reflective, accessible look at friendship with Jesus and the meaning of hospitality in faith. The book suits those interested in devotional reading, historical theology, and everyday expressions of devotion.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
