Behold Your Mother - Mothers Day - John 19:25-27

About this episode

The episode reflects on the significance of Mother's Day through the lens of Jesus' actions at the cross.

Today we take a break from our study through the Old Testament book of Ezra as we consider the cross of Christ and its implications for Mother's Day. Jesus demonstrates so beautifully his love, care, compassion for others even as he himself is going through the darkest, most painful moment of his earthly ministry. Scripture text for today is John 19:25-27.
