6 Hours, 7 Lessons: How Christ's Light Transcends Our Darkness

During His darkest moments, Jesus uttered seven statements on the Cross that offer us tremendous wisdom in our own dark seasons—when we feel alone, forgotten, and unable to surrender, forgive, or let go of our mistakes. In 6 Hours, 7 Lessons, Orthodox Christian priest Father Nicholas Louh and licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Roxanne Louh show us that there is no darkness so dark that our Lord hasn’t already experienced it. Christ’s final words direct us toward the light of His love and protection while giving us the guidance we need to find hope and healing.
