Good Friday 2026 - Deacon Cindy Miller

On Good Friday, Deacon Cindy Miller walks us through the final hours of Jesus' life as recorded in John's Gospel, from the cross to the moment the soldiers find he has already died. What did Jesus mean when he said "It is finished"? Cindy traces the larger arc of Scripture, from Abraham's promise that "the Lord will provide the lamb" to the cross where that promise is fulfilled. In less than twenty-four hours, nearly every form of human sin was committed against Jesus, and he took it all on willingly. This sermon sits in the tension between apparent hopelessness and the hope Christ offers, reminding us that even on the hardest day of the church calendar, Sunday is coming.
