Good Friday: Why Are You Afraid?

Matthew 27:32-50

April 10, 2020 • Matt Simpson

In Matthew 27:32-50, the reality of the cross is that Jesus really *died." His death disheartened the disciples, but it brought a new reality - HOPE. And yet, in those dark moments of the cross, God was dealing with sin, death, and hopelessness. Jesus asked His disciples during His ministry, "Why are you afraid?" From the cross, He declared, "It is finished." Death defeated. Sin vanquished. Fear no more.

Easter 2015

April 5, 2015 • Jeff Noble • Luke 24

As we celebrate Easter we look at what took place on the road to Emmaus. We look at the disciples and the few that saw Jesus after he rose from the grave and end up asking if we have an 'Emmaus heart' or a true Easter heart?

Palm Sunday 2015

March 29, 2015 • Neal Nelson • Luke 19

As we begin to celebrate 'Passion Week' with Palm Sunday, Neal has us look at who Jesus really is and why we should be worshiping Him for who He is and not who we think He is.

Good Friday 2023

April 7, 2023 • Matt Simpson

We call this day Good Friday. But what makes Good Friday, good? At first glance, it isn’t good at all. What is good about Jesus dying alone, humiliated, in excruciating pain, mocked and treated like a common criminal? However, through Jesus we can now never be separated from the love of God. He has won the only victory that matters. And that is why Good Friday is good.
