Description
We go deeper into Good Friday and refuse to treat the Passion like a moment that only stirs emotion. We name the cry “Where are you, God?” and meet the shocking claim that Jesus enters our darkness and answers with mercy.
• Good Friday as a decision not a mood
• “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” as our shared prayer
• Jesus stepping into spiritual darkness and felt abandonment
• The Father’s silence as salvation not absence
• Our sin as participation in the Passion story
• Christ choosing mercy at the moment of maximum pain
• The cross as presence and love more than explanation
• A call to kneel and bring pain doubt and anger to Jesus
You will come forward and venerate the cross. Don't come casually. Come like your life depends on it. Because it does.
