What was on Jesus' mind during His darkest hour? In this lesson, we examine the first two sayings from the cross — His prayer for forgiveness and His promise of Paradise to the thief. Rather than anger, revenge, or despair, Jesus modeled grace under the most extreme suffering imaginable. We explore what His words teach us about the nature of forgiveness, the reality of life after death, and the hope available to every sinner — no matter how late the hour.
