A Prayer for Good Friday

What would it look like for us to invite God into the suffering we’re holding? What if we were honest about our pain instead of silver lining it? Before we can fully celebrate Easter Sunday, we must go through Good Friday—which is considered the darkest day of the year for Christians around the world. Join us this week as we ask the Light of the world to help us remember and sit in the tension of the now and not yet.

Exciting news: Kayla has a new book releasing in September! Every Season Sacred is an invitation to ask big questions, embrace faithful rhythms, and experience God’s mysterious, loving presence together. You don’t have to have all the answers—and if we’re honest, many answers aren’t ours to have. This is the beauty of faith.  To learn more, visit kaylacraig.com/newbook.

You can check out Liturgies for Parents on Instagram for more prayers and encouragement and pick up your own copy of To Light Their Way wherever books are sold. For glimpses of Kayla’s experiences with parenting and faith, find her on Instagram at @kayla_craig.
