Looking for a new, fresh and innovative approach to Good Friday at your church or small group? For 2010, GRF Christian Radio has recorded seven 'shorts' (of approximately 4 minutes each) reflecting Jesus' last words from the cross.
The reading of each 'last word' from Scripture is followed by a short
character monologue or dialogue which explores a contemporary insight into Jesus' words, grounded in that character's own experience. Each 'short' concludes with an appropriate piece of music, inviting reflection.
These moving and thought-provoking programmes are intended primarily for broadcast between 12 noon and 3pm on Good Friday, but could be used at any time during Holy Week.
They would also be very suitable for use by churches during Holy Week.
The programmes are available via Audiopot: www.audiopot.org
Audiopot enables free downloads of audio material for use by churches, schools and radio stations.
GRF has also produced a fully-mixed 29-minute programme based on the same material.
This would be suitable for broadcast on Good Friday, particularly
in a slot between 12 noon and 3pm. This version is not available on Audiopot but can be downloaded directly from: www.grf.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sevenwords09.mp3
