On Good Friday, we hear from five people who had a front-row seat to Jesus’ final hours—and their stories hit deep. Simon was just passing by when he got pulled in to carry Jesus’ cross, and it changed him. Mary, His mom, watched her son suffer, holding on to love through heartbreak. Peter messed up big time—denying Jesus three times—but still found hope. A Roman soldier saw Jesus die and realized He really was the Son of God. And Joseph of Arimathea, a quiet follower, stepped up to give Jesus a proper burial. Their encounters still speak to us today.
