    The Passion: The Rest of the Story William Hill, who was the founder of Hopewell Presbyterian Church, used to tell the story of an old preacher who was approached by some of the members in his congregation. The members told him that he was boring them to tears and that their patience was wearing ...read more

    Matthew 27:45-50 As we read this passage, two questions come to our minds: 1. Why did darkness cover the whole land (v. 45)? We are told there was a thick darkness over the whole land for three hours, from "the sixth hour until the ninth hour," or from noon till three o’clock in the afternoon. ...read more
