The Cross - Simon of Cyrene

This week Pastor JR lets Simon of Cyrene's unexpected moments remind us of God's purpose even in life's interruptions. Just as Simon was compelled to carry the cross of Christ, we too may face moments that feel unplanned or overwhelming. In those moments, God invites us to step into His greater story. Your acts of faith, even when they feel small or unintentional, are significant in His Kingdom. Let us deny ourselves, take up our cross daily, and follow Him, knowing that His grace strengthens us for the journey.

²⁶ And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus. - Luke 23:26 (ESV)
