Good Friday | 2025 | Shoreline Church

On this sacred day, we remember the agony, abandonment, and grief Jesus endured on the cross—and we ask ourselves, how could this possibly be good? In this powerful Good Friday message, we walk through the very real human responses to the death of Jesus: **giving up, feeling betrayed, and grieving deeply**.

But the story doesn’t end there.

This night reminds us that even in the darkest moments, **God is still writing the story**. The cross wasn’t the end—it was the beginning of something new. And if it feels like the end for you right now, **there’s still hope**. God has the final word.

about this message

Good Friday wasn’t good because of what Jesus suffered—it was good because of what His suffering accomplished. In this heartfelt message, we reflect on the pain of the cross and how Jesus’ sacrifice gives us **hope, healing, and the promise of resurrection**. The story didn’t end on Friday… and yours doesn’t either.

key scripture:

**1 Corinthians 1:18** – “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.”
