John 18:1-19:42

Is Good Friday about trying to overcome distance, or is it about acknowledging the distances between us? On this day, we feel a long way from God. We think we’ve resolved that childhood question, “What’s good about Good Friday?” but our answers still seem inadequate. This day doesn’t feel good to us. It feels a long way from good. That is part of the point.

For contemplation, listen to this song.
