“‘I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.’”
‭‭John‬ ‭16‬:‭33‬ ‭NIVUK‬‬

Easter Saturday is an in between day. A liminal space - when you are between what was and what will be. We hold this space knowing that Sunday is coming; but what about the disciples on that Saturday? They did not yet know that Jesus would rise. Their friend was dead. #LiminalSpace #EasterSaturday

It’s Good Friday. Why ‘good’ when this day commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus? The word ‘good’ was also historically ‘Holy’ - why we sometimes call the Bible ‘the Good Book’.
So today is Holy Friday.
Of course Jesus was the ultimate perfect sacrifice for us, certainly something good. #GoodFriday

“I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live for ever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.’”
‭‭John‬ ‭6‬:‭51‬ ‭NIVUK‬‬

Palm Sunday marks the start of Holy Week, as we head towards Easter and the death and resurrection of Jesus. Today we celebrate Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem where crowds shouted Hosanna and waved palm branches as he passed. This is often described as triumphant; a high before the low of Good Friday.
