Easter Weekend – Good Friday

Easter Weekend begins with the most somber of days, Good Friday. This is the day that Jesus gave his life for us on a cruel cross.

Luke 23:44-46 – It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last.

But this was just Friday. Sunday was coming.

    You’re reminding me of Tony Campolo. He came to my Christian college several times while I was there. And I used to love it when he’d say, “it’s Friday. But Sunday’s comin’!” 🙂

    • Yes. He’s the one I first heard it from. He’d yell out “Friday, friday, friday! But Sunday’s a’comin’. I had forgotten his name but his words stuck with me. Thanks.
