Today With Jesus

In this episode of Today With Jesus, we continue our study of Jesus’ words from the cross: “Woman, behold your son… Behold your mother” (John 19:26–27).

In Part 1, we explored the moment itself—the raw emotion, the setting at the cross, and the relationship between Jesus, Mary, and John. In Part 2, we turn our attention to what this statement reveals about Jesus’ heart and how it reshapes our understanding of family, care, and discipleship today.

In Luke 23:43, Jesus spoke words of incredible comfort to a dying man:

“Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”

In the previous episode, we examined what Jesus meant when He spoke these words from the cross. In this episode, we turn our attention to the compassion behind the promise.

The statement Jesus made to the thief was not out of character. Throughout His ministry, Jesus consistently showed deep compassion for sinners, the suffering, and the spiritually lost. The promise of paradise reveals the heart of a Savior who cares deeply for people.

In this episode of Today With Jesus, Dan Winkler and Robert Hatfield continue their study of the first of Jesus’ seven sayings from the cross:

“Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” (Luke 23:34)

In Part 1, we examined the statement in its immediate context at Calvary. In Part 2, we step back and ask:

How did Jesus live this prayer long before He prayed it?
And how can we bring that same spirit into our own hearts?
