Hebrews 12:1-2; Matthew 27:27-54
For the joy set before Him

In the book of Hebrews it tell us that 'for the joy set before him he (Jesus) endured the cross.' What was the joy set before Jesus - and why did He even have to die on the cross? Emma Bicknell looks at what we learn about God and what we learn about ourselves when we fix our eyes on Jesus on the cross. It really is good news on Good Friday.
