Easter 2019: Caught Between Strength and Weakness

TAKEAWAYS:

1. Though Jesus' death was a highly spiritual event, He was not a mere machine going through the motions.

2. The physicial torture was excruciating, the emotional strain overwhelming, the spiritual challenge enormous.

3. For Him to endure, He focused on the joy of what would be accomplished through Him.

4. For us to endure our own suffering, we do the same: find joy in the fact that the same God has promised to get us through.
