The Central Moment

On this Good Friday we remember, we repent and we receive. We receive all that God has for us—his loving grace, his freeing power and hope from him for resurrection renewal. We invite you to join us in-person or online at centralassembly.tv for our Good Friday service, this evening at 7:00pm.

Dr. Jim Bradford is joined by world-renowned scholar and professor of Early Judaism and Christian Origins, Dr. Wave Nunnally, to give historical and scriptural context to Jesus's final week on earth. Join us for a special edition of The Central Moment each day this week as we lead up to Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday... and be sure to attend Walk The Last Week With Jesus, an immersive exhibit, this week at Central Assembly.

Spiritual victories are sealed through praise. We praise God in faith before the victories and we give God glory after the victories. In this way, faith grows and victories multiply.

Spiritual warfare is very real. Demonic powers seek to defeat the followers of Christ. But just like Moses stretched out his hand and parted the sea, another stretched out his hands and defeated the Devil.

Sometimes we need people to have our back. We feel vulnerable and unable to defend ourselves. But no one has our back like the Lord! He makes a way where there is no way.

Sometimes all we can do is be still, right our attitudes and trust God to be our victory.  In the short term we don’t always understand what God is doing, but he always has the big picture of his glory in view.

Does God harden people’s hearts and then judge them for having hard hearts? It may appear like God did exactly that with Pharaoh, but there is always more to the story.
