Stripped

This Sunday, March 27, will be the third Sunday of Lent. We continue our journey that follows Jesus’ road of suffering on the last day of his earthly life. Another hour has passed since last Sunday, and Jesus is stripped of his garments before he is nailed to the cross. Stripped of all that would shield him from God’s wrath, Jesus takes upon himself the curse that was meant for us. And now we must consider what we must be stripped of in order to stand before our God. 10:00 a.m.
