4 Weeks

To The Cross

This four-week series outlines the way of the cross that we see in the Gospels. Jesus begins his journey to the cross by entering Jerusalem with celebration on Palm Sunday. He then goes from celebration to sorrow in the garden of Gethsemane, wrestling with the sin and brokenness of humanity. This brings him to Golgotha to pay the price for sin and sorrow. The story ends not with sorrow and death but with resurrection and new life. These stages reveal to us our brokenness and our continuous need for God’s grace and the new life we have in Jesus.

Using This Series Guide

What is the Series Guide?

The Series Guide is a comprehensive resource designed to help you lead your congregation through this sermon series. It includes weekly sermon outlines, discussion questions, and key theological insights to support your teaching preparation.

Each guide has been thoughtfully crafted to provide you with both depth and flexibility as you prepare your messages.

This series includes 4 weeks of content.

What is the Series Guide Not?

The Series Guide is not a word-for-word sermon script. It's not meant to replace your own study and preparation, but rather to complement it with additional resources and structure.

It also doesn't include all media assets - those are available in the downloads section.

How Do I Use this Series Guide?

We recommend starting with the series overview to understand the big picture themes. Then, for each week, review the scripture passages, main points, and illustrations provided.

Use the discussion questions for small groups or to spark your own thinking. Feel free to adapt any content to fit your congregation's specific needs and context.
