There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.
John 19:18

At the cross, they crucified Jesus between two criminals—one on His right, one on His left. Three crosses stood against the sky, but only one held the Savior of the world. As John 19:18 describes, "There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle." Jesus was positioned at the center—not by accident, but by divine purpose. He became The Man in the Middle, bridging the gap between sinful humanity and a holy God, offering forgiveness and redemption to all who would look upon Him.

This Easter, we gently ask you a simple, heartfelt question: Do you know The Man in the Middle? He took your place and mine, carrying our guilt so we could be forgiven. He died, then rose again in victory over death, and right now He waits to meet you exactly where you are—in your pain, your questions, your longing. Come this Easter. Come see, or come remember, how knowing Jesus, the true Man in the Middle, can fill your life with real hope and changing love.

Join us and meet The Man In The Middle!
