Musing About Good Friday

In preparation for next week's Good Friday service I have been going through my files looking over some notes from past years' services.

As food for thought, here are some themes I have previously used

2000 Retelling the Passion narrative

2001 Why did Jesus have to die? (Romans 3:23-26)

2003 Readings from the Gospel directing us to the Table and the Cross
(Pastor and Minister of Music)

2005 A Sermon from the Cross -- It is Finished (Psalm 22)

2006 Divine Power Displayed from the Cross (Mark 15.37-39)

2008 Thinking about Isaiah 53

My goal in these services are twofold. One, to recognize and consider the events of Jesus' death. Two, to prepare for Celebration of the Resurrection.

We can't get to Sunday, without walking through Friday.

May God bless you as you prepare.
