When everyone else scattered, a few stayed. Joseph took courage and stepped out against the crowd. The women followed all the way to the tomb. They didn't run when it got hard.

Christ endured for you. The question is whether you will endure for him. You can either serve him or mock him.

How are you going to serve him this week — specifically?

Join us this Sunday for something a little different. Weather permitting, we'll be worshipping outside — open sky, open Word, open hearts.

After the service, stick around for our church picnic! Bring a dish to share, bring your family, bring a neighbor. There will be food, fellowship, and plenty of room to linger.

📖 We'll conclude our series through the Gospel of Mark.
🌿 Service is outdoors, weather permitting.
🍽️ Picnic follows immediately after.

Come ready to enjoy the Lord's day together — in every sense.

Darkness covered the land. He cried out in agony. In a moment's notice he could have ended all of it — and he didn't. By his own will and the will of the Father, he stayed on that cross. For you.

No matter what you have done, you are forgiven. No matter what you are going through, you are not forgotten. He proved it.

Does that actually change the way you live?

They knelt before him, called him king, and spit on him in the same breath. Their words were true. Their hearts were all wrong. It's easy to sing about Christ on Sunday and forsake him by Monday. Christ isn't just concerned with how you worship in here — he cares what your Monday looks like.

What does your worship look like when you walk out those doors?

They followed Jesus for years. All it took was one voice to get in their ear and they turned. You can like the idea of Jesus — follow him from a distance, go through the motions — without ever truly knowing him. When the wind blows, is your faith planted?

Can you look back on a time your faith was more on fire than it is right now?

Pilate knew Jesus was innocent. He even said so. But when the crowd got loud, he gave them what they wanted. Amazement isn't faith. Knowing the right thing isn't the same as doing it.

Does your faith ask what does God will — or what is best for me?

Jesus stood before false accusations and said nothing. Not out of fear — out of trust. He had already surrendered to the Father's will in the garden, and he meant it. His silence was steadfast faith in action.

Is your faith ready for a trial you didn't plan for?

The cup Jesus lifted that night pointed all the way back to God's promise in Exodus — and he kept it. Every single one. This supper isn't the last. There's a table still to come and he'll be faithful to that promise too.

What promise of God are you holding onto right now?

it's easy to look at Judas and think "I would never do that." But Peter thought the same thing — and a few hours later he denied Jesus three times.

Mark puts these two stories together on purpose. We are all more like Judas and Peter than we want to admit. Communion isn't just going through the motions — it's stopping to honestly name our sins before God. Because you can't truly know his grace until you know the depth of what he's forgiving.

When was the last time you actually confessed your sins to God — not just a general "sorry" but naming them specifically?

He's already there before you even know where you're going. That's what Jesus showed his disciples the night of the Last Supper — and it's still true today. Whatever you're walking into this week, you're not walking in alone.

What's one thing you need to trust God with this week?
