054 The Cry of the Savior: A Meditation on Psalm 22 and the Cross of Christ

Thursday, 17 August: In this episode, John explores the connection between the words of Jesus on the cross and the ancient Psalm 22. He shows how both texts speak of hope, trust, and perseverance in the midst of suffering. And encourages listeners to never give up on God, no matter how difficult things may seem. Here are some additional thoughts on the passage: Psalm 22 is a powerful reminder that we are not alone in our suffering. Jesus experienced the same pain and abandonment that we do, and he understands our deepest sorrows. The cross of Christ is the ultimate expression of God's love and mercy. Jesus' death paid the penalty for our sins, and his resurrection guarantees our victory over death. We can find hope in the midst of suffering by trusting in God's love and mercy. No matter what we are going through, God is with us and he will never abandon us. Email me your questions, comments, and suggestions.
