Good Friday Reflections

This is Good Friday, the Friday before Christianity's most important Holiday, Easter. Good Friday was actually the darkest and most terrifying period which the early followers of Jesus ever experienced.

There were no heroes that day. The disciples acted clueless and cowardly, the Roman guards were horribly cruel, the governor was contemptibly corrupt, the religious leaders unbelievably evil, and at the end of that terrible day Jesus lay buried in a tomb.

So why do Christians call it Good Friday... ? Because amazingly, death is not the end of Jesus' story.

If you are interested, the full story can be read here.
