Drippings from the Honeycomb
Do you think the Bible is boring? King David, in one of his psalms, said the Scriptures were so sweet they were like "drippings from the honeycomb." Perhaps it's time that we take a few minutes out of our busy lives and look at the Bible through fresh eyes! Join us on a journey to find these "sweet drippings" as we walk through the books of the Bible by studying selected key verses through which we can glimpse the whole theme of each book! We will look at stories you might not have heard before, talk about the real people and places behind each of these verses, see how one verse can connect to many others across the entire Bible, and learn to see the beauty of God's sovereign plan which is woven through every page of His Word.

The agony of the cross that Jesus suffered during His crucifixion is so much more than just the physical pain of death. In fact, while the physical pain was intense, there is evidence to suggest that this was not the primary source of Jesus’s suffering. In the Scriptures, we do not have any record of Jesus crying out in pain, however, there is a record of Jesus crying out. Matthew 27:46 records His heart-rending cry in the words, “My God, My God why have You forsaken me?” The agony of separation from His Father is clearly evidenced by this desperate cry from Jesus to the Father, and it bids us take a closer look at why this particular agony was so intense that Jesus called out in the midst of His suffering.
Join us as we take a closer look at the three distinct agonies that Jesus suffered on the cross and what they mean for humanity.
