During our Good Friday Service\, Godly Play will be offered for children. \nIsaiah 52:13—53:12 He was despised; a man of sorrows. Psalm 22 (VU p. 743) My God\, why have you forsaken me? John 18:1—19:42 Jesus is arrested\, tried\, & crucified. Luke 23: 32-49 Jesus hung beside thieves \nToday we journey towards the cross\, holding our burdens and laying them down. Jesus resisted the empire but accepts his fate. We are also called to resist systems of power and oppression\, and yet we ultimately have to accept that Jesus dies – and one day we will too. Stepping into this story helps our own discernment of when to accept as given and what to resist. \nShare:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n Like this:Like Loading...
