From the banks of Burcham Creek…
"Man of Sorrows! what a name
For the Son of God, who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim!
Hallelujah, what a Savior!"
- Philip P. Bliss
Text: Matthew 27:32-56
54 So when the centurion and those with him
who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake
and the things that had happened,
they feared greatly, saying,
“Truly this was the Son of God!”

The greatest story ever told changed
the world and our eternal destiny forever.
This story of life, love, compassion and
sacrifice but also of evil, betrayal and
treachery is told by my friend and
brother in Christ Glenn Colley in
a story-telling format.

"The Cross"
You've been trying hard to bear
The weight of all your shame
And if there's a God up there
You're sure He forgot your name
When your steps are getting heavy
And hope looks all but lost
Just bring it all to the cross
Who told you grace can't reach
The messed up ones like you?
Has the devil made you believe
The lies he tells are true?
When you're sure that you're the one
Who's wandered too far off
It's not too late
Just come home to the cross
Come and see a Savior's love
That would die to make you new
Nothing you have ever done
Can change what mercy's done for you
And if you ever wonder
If you're worth so great a cost
Look up and see the cross
Everybody's got a list
At least a mile long
Of every scar and every sin
From everywhere that we've gone wrong
But there's reason for rejoicing
And the reason is because
That list was nailed to the cross
He was wounded for your wounds
Pierced for all your sin
By His stripes you are healed
Died so you could rise again
He let the blood and water flow
And did it all to let you know
You're the reason that He went to the cross
Oh, He's calling you to run home to the cross
And if you ever wonder
If you're worth so great a cost
Look up and see the cross
