Good Friday: The Posture Of The Cross (Andrew East)

In his Good Friday message, Andrew explored the "posture" of God by examining Peter’s denial through the metaphor of a Rorschach test, highlighting how we often project our own fears of judgement onto the heart of Christ.  Drawing from the account in Luke 22 and the story of an Iranian prisoner’s compassionate artwork, Andrew argued that Jesus' gaze is one of unconditional love rather than anger or disappointment. The message challenges us to apply this truth by refusing to be defined by our worst failures and instead accepting a "new story" shaped by God's limitless forgiveness. By internalising this divine perspective, we are empowered to let go of shame and extend that same life-giving grace to those in our own lives.Luke 22:54–62; Luke 23:34; 1 Peter 2:24; Ephesians 5:1–2.Let Us Know You Are Listening
