Surely You Are The Son Of God | Lenten Live 2024 (Week 1)

Join us as we prepare our hearts for the Easter season at Lenten Live! The theme of these teachings is called "Surely You Are" where we will focus each week on a different aspect of who Jesus is and what that means for us who follow him.This week Dr. Kurt Bjorklund kicks off this series with an Ash Wednesday message looking at the divinity of Jesus. Dr. Steve Jones also provides an examination of what fasting is and why it's an important spiritual discipline.Key Scripture PassageMark 15:33-39 - At noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. And at three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”). When some of those standing near heard this, they said, “Listen, he’s calling Elijah.” Someone ran, filled a sponge with wine vinegar, put it on a staff, and offered it to Jesus to drink. “Now leave him alone. Let’s see if Elijah comes to take him down,” he said. With a loud cry, Jesus breathed his last. The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. And when the centurion, who stood there in front of Jesus, saw how he died, he said, “Surely this man was the Son of God!”Subscribe to the Weekend Message Audio! - https://orchardhillchurch.buzzsprout.com/shareConnect with Orchard Hill ChurchWebsiteMobile AppYouTubeFacebookInstagramX (Twitter)
