    Jesus is "all in" for us. He was "all in" giving every last drop of blood for us. Jesus calls to be "all in" for him: holding nothing back. The resurrection gives us the hope that there is more "life" for those who are "all in" for Jesus.

    A Good Friday sermon as part of the lenten series Words of Lent. (This sermon quotes several historical perspectives and descriptions of crucifixion)

    Four simple words are found in this text: “And they crucified him”. -- "And they crucified him!" Not very descriptive really, considering the severity of the punishment. Obviously, they were words that were meant for an entirely different audience. And audience, who is Jesus’ day, knew exactly what ...read more
