Now when the soldiers crucified Jesus, they divided up his clothes into four shares, one for each of them. But his tunic was seamless, woven from the top to the bottom as a single garment. So the soldiers said to each other, “Don’t tear it—let’s throw dice to see who gets it!” The soldiers did all of this not knowing they fulfilled the Scripture that says, “They divided my garments among them and gambled for my clothing.” Mary, Jesus’ mother, was standing next to his cross, along with Mary’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. So when Jesus looked down and saw the disciple he loved standing with her, he said, “Mother, look—John will be a son to you.” Then he said, “John, look—she will be a mother to you!” From that day on, John accepted Mary into his home as one of his own family.

There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to God’s blessings. Christians are suffering all over the world; some are living in poverty while others are rich. There must be more to the idea of blessing than money. Right? Does God want to bless you? And how? And why? Join Bible teacher Berni Dymet from Christianityworks for a three-day plan that’s all about God’s blessings in your life!
Jesus didn’t have to keep going—but He did. This three-day plan walks through the journey from Good Friday to Easter, inviting you to reflect on Christ’s suffering, the weight of the cross, and the hope of resurrection. Discover how His sacrifice redefines our pain and redemption through scripture, contemplation, and prayer.
The WORD on the cross... The WORD in the grave... The WORD resurrected... Day 1 examines Jesus' final words on the cross. Day 2 contemplates the silence of Saturday—the "between" day when Jesus lay in the tomb. Day 3 celebrates how Jesus, as the Word, offers the final, triumphant word over sin and death.
This short three day walk will lead you to three biblical mountains. Studying them will help you to get a deeper understanding of the biblical Gospel. Great to share with unbelievers as well!
