Join us for a meal of soup, bread and dessert ($5 suggested donation) followed by a special 20-minute Miracle of Easter Lenten devotional presented by Ed and Sally Baker.
As we prepare to celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus, we'll take a unique perspective each Wednesday:
* Having an accurate understanding of what a crucifixion was actually like can deepen our appreciation of Jesus' act of love.
* It was not only Jesus who suffered on Good Friday, it was also His Father who watched His son die.
* God not only allowed His Son to die, but had predicted how, when and why it would happen.
* God used a snake and a goat to help us grasp a deeper understanding of Christ's death.
* Jesus himself explained to a Jewish Pharisee what his coming death would accomplish.
* As the Passover Lamb was being sacrificed in the temple, the Lamb of God was being sacrificed on a hill called Golgotha.
