Into Your Hands (The Seventh Word from the Cross 03.04.2026 2:10

Before He draws His final breath… He prays. In this Holy Week reflection, we step into the final moments of Jesus—suspended between earth and heaven—where His last words are not cries of despair, but a prayer of trust: “Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit.” This episode traces that ancient prayer from Psalm 31 through the lips of Jesus on the cross, revealing a posture not just for death—bu...

It is Finished (The Sixth Word from the Cross) 02.04.2026 1:57

This is not the cry of defeat. “It is finished.” From the cross, Jesus speaks—not as one overcome, but as one who has completed the work He came to do. Every step of suffering, every moment of endurance, every ounce of obedience has led to this final declaration. The race is run. The price is paid. And what does that mean for us? It means the record of our wrongs—every failure, every hidden sin, e...

I Thirst (The Fifth Word from the Cross) 01.04.2026 2:48

Two words. That's all He says. After the long night. The lashes. The miles. The weight of the world pressing down on Him — Jesus speaks the most human sentence of the crucifixion: "I thirst." Not a sermon. Not a shout of victory. Just… need. In this fifth episode of our Holy Week series — The Seven Last Words — we sit with the stunning vulnerability of a thirsting Christ. The One wh...

Why Have You Forsaken Me? (The Fourth Word From the Cross) 31.03.2026 4:55

In this fourth episode of our Holy Week series — The Seven Last Words — we sit with the most searingly honest words ever spoken: My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? This is for anyone who has prayed and not heard. Who has waited and not seen. Who has whispered into the dark and felt nothing come back. You are not losing your faith. You are not broken beyond repair. You are standing in the sa...

Woman Behold Your Son (The Third Word From the Cross) 30.03.2026 3:47

In the middle of His own suffering, Jesus looks down from the cross and sees His mother. And He makes sure she will not walk through it alone. This third episode in our Holy Week series — The Seven Last Words — reflects on one of the most tender moments of the crucifixion. With a few quiet words, Jesus creates a family not by blood, but by love. And in doing so, He reveals something we desperately...

Today You Will Be With Me (The Second Word from the Cross) 29.03.2026 2:06

Two men hang beside Jesus. Same cross. Same pain. Same moment. Two completely different responses. One demands proof. The other pleads for hope. And in that desperate, dying plea, grace does what grace always does — it reaches further than anyone thought possible. In this episode, Matt Tullos reflects on the second of the Seven Last Words of Jesus: "Today, you will be with me in paradise.&quo...

Father, Forgive Them (The First Word from the Cross) 26.03.2026 1:56

From the cross, in the midst of unimaginable suffering, Jesus speaks a prayer that still echoes today: “Father, forgive them…” This brief reflection considers the depth of that mercy—offered not only to those who crucified Him, but to each of us. Through poetic reflection and scripture,...
