Pastor Seth Troutt teaches from Hebrews 12 on the meaning of Good Friday and the joy that led Jesus to endure the cross. In this Good Friday service, we consider not only what happened at the crucifixion, but why Jesus willingly suffered and died. 

Seth traces the joy behind Jesus (the eternal love and joy within the Trinity), the joy before Jesus (His delight in redeeming and presenting His people), and the joy He shares with us (the joy of the Lord as our strength in temptation, suffering, and perseverance).  

This service invites us to reflect on Christ’s death, the love that motivated it, and how His joy now empowers our everyday obedience and endurance.
