Good Friday

This week marks the end of Lent. On Friday, Christians around the world will observe Good Friday, remembering the death of Jesus for our sins. I use the word “observe” rather than celebrate as we normally speak of Christmas, Easter, Pentecost, and other major days of the Christian year because Good Friday is not really a celebration.

Longing For Our Glorious Eternal Home

Last Sunday I taught on Romans 8:18-25, which I called “Bound for Glory!” After finishing, I re-listened to CS Lewis’s classic sermon “The Weight of Glory” – which is one of my favorite short writings of Lewis. In it, he speaks much of the glory that will be ours in eternity. The entire sermon is worth reading (or listening to an audio reading of it), and it is full of great quotes. Today, however, I just want to give two quotes that point to our longing for our glorious eternal home.

Book Recommendation

The Hose and His Boy was the fifth book published in The Chronicles of Narnia series. This tale is a bit unusual, for instead of going forward in time, it drops into the middle of the time when Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy were still in Narnia and reigning as the Kings and Queens of Narnia.
