Kick off a 3 part mini-series leading up to Easter with us! In today’s episode, Dot and Cara explore Good Friday, specifically the moment Jesus cried out, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” as he hung on the Cross. They discuss the true loneliness Jesus experienced on the Cross, and reflect on the fact that we are never alone as children of God. Grab your Bible and a journal and join the conversation!
