Luke 23:47

Nearly everyone agrees that this world is broken. But what if there’s a solution? This seven-day Easter plan begins with the unique experience of the thief on the cross and considers why the only real answer to brokenness is found in the execution of an innocent man: Jesus, the Son of God.

Stephan Joubert gesels oor Paasfees en herinner jou dat dit by die kruis is waar God wys hoe lief Hy vir ons is. In die Lydenstyd en Paastyd beleef ons opnuut hoe duur Jesus se aardse sending Hom gekos het. Ons herinner onsself dat Hy selfs die dood moes trotseer sodat ons vir altyd in sy lig mag leef. Jesus het inderdaad sy grootste wonderteken vir laaste gelos.

It’s hard to imagine what Jesus was thinking and feeling in the days leading to cross, but one thing we do know—his trust and assurance in the goodness and faithful love of God. Take a journey this Holy Week through the gospels, walk with Jesus, ask God a simple question, and encounter the vast love of God.

Let’s slow down this Holy Week and learn from Christ’s final days on earth. Each day we will receive lessons or gifts that He took the time to give. Do you need a fresh reminder of what mattered most to Christ—that you love His people and follow Him? What could He want to teach you this Holy Week?
