Good Friday to all of you and just wanted to take a second and welcome all the Vents viewers.

We really do appreciate you guys staying around for us on this special Good Friday episode.

We are actually going to get into the story of Easter.

Talk about the crucifixion, talk about the resurrection,

but really what I want to do is tell you a lot of details that maybe you don't hear in church.

Things that I think are really just the fingerprint of God that show you places where you can

dig, where you can grab a bit more understanding, and really start to see the texture behind the story.

So it isn't just a story that you're hearing.

So stick around.

This is Good Morning Mug Club.

Subject for today. All right. Look, we have gotten it all right. Look, we have gotten it all wrong. Good Friday is not a day of morning. It is a day of celebration. Now, I understand if you are somebody who grew up in the church,

you've probably heard this story a million times over. If you're not, welcome. Thanks for hanging out with us on Good Friday to hear a little bit more about this story. I have to start with

people in the audience maybe who are, you wouldn't classify yourself as somebody who's spiritual

or a believer. It is the most important decision

you can make in life for one of two ways. Either it's true and it changes everything about how

you live your life or it's not true and it's a complete waste of time and you don't want to

end up falling into that trap. Either way, it's important to look into this issue of who Jesus is,

who God is, what the story of Easter is,

and decide for yourself what you believe. I have a point of view, and I hope you follow

along with that point of view, but I understand people are coming from a lot of different places.

So hang out with me for just a little bit, and we will get into the details. But I grew up in

church like a lot of people did, just going to church because my parents did.
