Today is a day that is used to annually commemorate the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ.

As I reflect on that solemn day in history, I cannot help but recognize and stand in awe of the transformative influence that Jesus' life, death, and resurrection has had on history; and, surpassing all other thoughts, the effect that His life has had on eternity.

Even though there are many people that could and will read this that do not believe Christ was and is God, Savior of all, we can all gain a deeper understanding of life, eternity, and history by taking this time to reflect on...

For Easter weekend of 2010, Mars Hill Church harnessed their resources and finances in order to produce a 30 minute film depicting the callous betrayal, murder, and burial of Jesus.  Just recently, Mars Hill Global has released this film to the public to be utilized as a tool to help us and others more thoroughly understand the brutality of Christ's crucifixion.

"Good Friday" is the most theologically-based modern film that has been produced attempting to show God's bloody sacrifice presented to serve as payment for our sins and shortcomings.  It took 3 months to film on sets in Hollywood and finish the production of this movie.

Regardless of your time commitments, please take the time to sit down and watch this film through.  It is provided in order that we may more thoroughly understand the brutality of crucifixion and the circumstances surrounding Christ's death.  Take some of your spare time to examine the events in this film and to ponder the occurrences from the Last Supper to Christ's burial.

I highly recommend visiting this web page to sign-up or sign-in to a Mars Hill account in order to download and view the full film.  (A variety of formats are available, such as HD d.v. and DVD iso)
