Words from the Cross: Devotionals & Liturgies

We are preparing to remember and celebrate two historical events that forever changed the world. The first is the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The second is the physical resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Apart from Jesus’ death and resurrection, we have no salvation, no forgiveness of sin. Apart from Jesus, there is no hope.

Our desire is that this short devotional book will introduce you to or remind you of the great love that God has for you. This love was powerfully demonstrated in the death of Jesus Christ. He was crucified so we might forever live with him.

In this book, you will find seven short devotionals that recount the words Jesus spoke from the cross. These words reveal the meaning, beauty, love, and power of Jesus’ crucifixion. Additionally, you will find thoughtful liturgical prayers that will help you reflect on and apply the truth of God’s Word. Lastly, we have provided a prayer for Resurrection Sunday.

I would also like to invite you to our Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday services. Good Friday is a unique time of reflecting on the sacrificial death of Jesus, while Resurrection Sunday is a celebration of Jesus’ resurrection from the dead. Our Good Friday services will be at 5:30 and 7:00 p.m. on April 15 while our Resurrection Sunday services will be at 8, 9:30, and 11:00 a.m. on April 17. 

10 In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
— 1 John 4:10 (ESV)

The love of God truly changes everything!
