On this special Good Friday episode of The Steve Marston Show, we walk through the most pivotal and sobering day in human history—the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Continuing our Holy Week series, Steve unpacks the events of Matthew 27, from Judas’ remorse and tragic end to Jesus standing before Pilate, the brutal scourging, and the ultimate sacrifice on the cross.

This episode doesn’t shy away from the weight of the moment—exploring the physical suffering of crucifixion, the spiritual reality of Jesus becoming sin for us, and the profound meaning behind His final words. It’s a powerful reminder that while Friday was dark, Sunday is coming—and everything changes because of it.

Plus, a fascinating conversation with filmmaker Joshua Anke about A Great Awakening, a new movie highlighting the unlikely friendship between Benjamin Franklin and evangelist George Whitefield, and how faith helped shape a nation before the Revolution.

Also featured: reflections on modern faith in culture, a bold testimony from MMA fighter Joe Pyfer, a look at faith-centered moments on American Idol, and a moving message from Alistair Begg on “the man on the middle cross.”

This is an episode to sit with, reflect on, and carry into Easter weekend with renewed perspective and gratitude.
