It’s Friday But Sunday’s Coming

It’s Good Friday.  I hope you don’t mind, but I’m going to skip the Stretched Ice Breaker this week.

Today is a day when many of us remember the sacrifice that Jesus made on the cross for you and for me.  I always looked forward to celebrating Easter – with the Sunrise Service, the Easter Egg Hunt, Sunday Easter services, and Easter lunch.  It was always a fun day to celebrate Christ’s resurrection.  Growing up, I typically went to church on Good Friday.  For me, this was the service that really set the tone for me to celebrate Easter on Sunday.  Remembering the sacrifice that Christ made for me is such an important reminder, and it’s such an important message to share with others.

As I was thinking about Good Friday and Easter Sunday, I couldn’t help but think of a message I’ve heard from Tony Campolo.  Here’s a clip of the message:
