March 29, 2024

Pastor Sawyer Meyers of Beautiful Lutheran Church in Olive Branch, MS, discusses the significance of the Gospel, Christ death on the cross to pay for the sins of the world. For Christians, Good Friday is an important day of the year because it celebrates the most momentous weekend in the history of the world. In light of the third day that followed Christ death by crucifixion, it’s clearer to see why the day is called, “Good Friday”, He bodily arose from the grave confirming His right to redeem those from sins eternal punishment. John 5:24, Jesus said, ““Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.”

These women are provided with the tools they need to thrive financially, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
