Tenebrae Good Friday Service

from Rooted in God’s Word · host Pastor Erik Lydick

This Good Friday, we invite you into something quiet… something weighty… something necessary... something about love.On this episode of Rooted in the Word of God, we walk through a Tenebrae service; a service of mourning.Step by step, Scripture leads us through the final hours of Jesus Christ.From the upper room…to the garden…to betrayal…to false trials…to the cross.Jesus, fully knowing what was coming, chose humility.He washed feet.He broke bread.He loved His disciples to the end.And then—He was betrayed with a kiss.Denied by a friend.Condemned by men.Crushed, mocked, and lifted up on a cross.Not as a victim…But as a willing Savior.This episode walks through the suffering, the silence, and the sacrifice of Christ; where justice and mercy meet, and where the weight of sin is fully carried.By the end…there is darkness. There is silence.And we sit in it.Because before resurrection…there is Good Friday.“But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities… and with his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5, ESV)Take time to listen.Find a quiet place. Let it press in. And then… wait.Sunday is coming.#GoodFriday #Tenebrae #RootedInTheWord #JesusChrist #TheCross #ItIsFinished #Isaiah53 #GospelTruth #Church #Faith #HolyWeek #Sermon #ChristianPodcast #BibleStudy #HePaidItAll #silenceandreflection
