As Jesus hung on the cross with his life ebbing away, he uttered several brief but significant statements. These “Seven Last Words” have long captivated followers of Jesus and inspired not only great music but also deep faith and reflection. As we prepare for Easter, we’ll look at each statement ourselves, asking what significance it might have for us today.

We share all kinds of information with people all the time, some of it important and some of it trivial. The most important knowledge we can share with people, though, is the knowledge of Jesus. Pointing people toward Jesus isn’t rocket science. It’s something we can do normally and naturally in everyday life, and what we’ll explore more closely this Spring.
