About this episode

Grant Clark explores the significance of the cross and the responses of those present at the crucifixion on Easter Sunday.

This Easter Sunday, Grant Clark explores the cross through the stories of those present at the crucifixion, including the two thieves and Simon of Cyrene. Some reject Him. Some believe. Some are completely changed. From the thief who comes with nothing but a humble request to be remembered, to Simon whose life is reshaped by carrying the cross, this message invites us to consider our own response to Jesus. Wherever you are in your faith, Easter is an invitation to come as you are and encounter Him. Verses: Luke 23:32-43 (CSB) Luke 23:42 Luke 23:26-27 (CSB) Romans 16v13 (ESV) Mark 8:34 Galatians 2:20-21 (CSB)
