In today’s message, Stephen Davey takes us to the foot of the cross to witness an unforgettable moment of compassion. As Jesus hangs on the cross, bearing the weight of humanity’s sin, He pauses to care for His mother, entrusting her to His beloved disciple, John. This profound act of love and responsibility fulfills the fifth commandment and provides a model for us to follow.

Drawing from John 19:23-27, Stephen explores the significance of this tender moment, where Jesus, the ultimate High Priest, demonstrates that caring for others is central to a life of faith. We’ll uncover the cultural and prophetic layers of this scene, from the significance of Jesus’ seamless tunic to the deeper familial divisions His mission caused. Even in His final hours, Jesus reminds us that compassion and duty are inseparable.

This passage challenges us to honor our families, care for those around us, and trust God through the divisions and misunderstandings that faith in Christ can bring. Join us as we explore how this simple yet profound act from the cross reveals the heart of the gospel—and how it calls us to live with compassion and purpose.
