This weekend (18-20 April) Ukraine is celebrating “pasga.” Painted eggs, sweet bread and lots of food… But what is it really about? Maybe Barabbas would have been able to tell us. A man condemned to die. Guilty. No hope. And yet set free. While all Jerusalem celebrated the Passover. And the Passover Lamb was slaughtered on a lonely hill. This is the short film we shot about this man about whom we read in the gospels. Barabbas. Can it be your and my story?

Judging.... why do we keep doing that!?Star wars, Lord of the rings, Chronicles of Narnia... an own interpretation

It is sometimes too easy to forget the sacrifice He made for us, thank you for he reminder. He chose the nails.

A brilliant video, we should think of Jesus's sacrifice every day;lest we forget what was done for us on Calvery. Satan was defeated and Jesus bought a new life for you and me with his blood.
