  • Summary

  • PM Edition for July 22

    In tonight's episode of "Morning and Evening with Chuck Spurgeon," we reflect on John 19:5, which calls us to "Behold the man!" This profound invitation directs our gaze to Jesus Christ, particularly in His moments of deepest suffering and sorrow. The theme for this evening centers on finding comfort and joy in the contemplation of Christ's agony and sacrifice.

    Key Points:

    1. Invitation to Behold Jesus in His Suffering:

      • We are encouraged to draw near and behold Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane, witnessing His heart overflowing with love and sorrow.
      • The devotional invites us to see His bloody sweat, the nails driven into His hands and feet, and the crown of thorns adorning His brow.

    2. Unique Sorrow of Christ:

      • There is no sorrow like His sorrow, no grief like His grief. This unparalleled agony testifies to His boundless love and the price He paid for our redemption.
      • By contemplating His suffering, we find healing for our own sorrows and doubts.

    3. Living in the Light of Christ's Death:

      • The reflection calls us to live in the light of Christ's death, finding dignity in His humiliation and joy in His sorrow.
      • To truly grasp the depth of His love, we must continually contemplate His suffering.
