Good Friday

Today is a very special day for me on a couple of fronts. The obvious significance of the day is recognizing ultimate sacrifice that Jesus Christ made for each of us on the cross 2000 years ago. If you have ever wondered what that truly means I would suggest visiting www.needhim.org . This is a very cool site.

The other reason that this day holds a special place in my heart is closely related to the first. On this day five years ago, I heard a message given by Adrian Rodgers, founder of Love Worth Finding Ministries, titled “Why the Cross”. I was driving through St. Louis on my way to my grandfather’s house. There is of course a story that leads up to this date, but on that day I truly understood what it means to be a Christian. I pulled my car to the side of the road, confessed that I was a sinner and truly submitted my life to Christ. From that point on my life was forever changed!

That’s that.

Have a Happy Easter.
