    Lent Midweek 5: "If you are the Son of God, come down from the Cross." The words of those who mocked Jesus. Ironically, by staying on the Cross, the Lord demonstrated his power. If He had come down - He would not have been worth believing.

This message was developed from an outline provided at a Lenten workshop where it was offered along with other resources for use during Lenten worship. Never kick a man while He ...read more

Like all Christian holy days and holidays, it has changed over the years, but its purpose has always been the same: self-examination and penitence, demonstrated by self-denial, in preparation for Easter.
