Why is Good Friday called "good"? | Winner, Loser, Champion

Pastor Joe Wickman

Leading up to Good Friday, Jesus' closest friends, the disciples, promised to be there for Him no matter what. But at a time Jesus needed them most, they all abandoned, betrayed, or denied Him. Would we have been any better than the disciples? In part two of "Winner, Loser, Champion", Pastor Joe teaches us how Jesus became the "loser", even among those who committed their lives to Him. Fortunately, all of that rejection moved Him toward the most important sacrifice in history - one that paid the ransom for our sin forever.
