There are few days as loved as that amazing one called Friday. For those who go to school and college, it marks the beginning of a short break from that dreaded teacher or lecturer; for working people, it’s a time to escape the nightmares of morning slash afternoon traffic and hopefully just kick back and catch a movie or have some drinks. So hallowed is the day that some clever person out there even coined a beautiful acronym celebrating the love of Friday – TGIF (Thank God It’s Friday). One of the funniest things I encounter every so often is to get back to work on a Monday and hear someone casually let out an exasperated, “Four more days till Friday”.

Apart from being a day to look ahead to rest and relaxation, Friday is also a day where we can look back on what the week has been. Whether it’s been a great weak or a rough one, what better day is there to take stock and reflect than Friday? In as much as we keep things moving and make it happen, we also need to cool down and just think. Plan. Slow down. Focus. Without a moment to deliberately press the pause button, it’s not possible to assess and do better. Friday is a beautiful day. It’s a good day.

Today is Good Friday, a very important day for Christians around the world. As believers in this message, we thought to share the wonderful message that is at the heart of Easter and asking you, if you haven’t done so before, to reflect on it. Artist, Propaganda from Humble Beast, delivers some beautiful and heartfelt spoken word to communicate the message in this video by Central Films:
