If Good Friday Were a 2025 Movie…
By Dr. Yinka Dixon
Queen of New Beginnings
Sometimes, the darkest Fridays lead to the brightest Sundays.
Not every ending is the end.
Some are just well-disguised beginnings.
The setting? Jerusalem, 33 A.D.
But let’s remix it.
Imagine this:
It's 2025. You’re at the top of your game. You’ve healed people who were broken, taught thousands for free, defended the voiceless, fed the poor, and never once asked for applause. You’re trending - not because you tried, but because you transformed lives.
And yet, on the eve of your greatest sacrifice…
You’re betrayed by a friend with a kiss.
Your circle disappears.
The same crowd that cheered you last week now chants, “Crucify!”
The justice system? Corrupt.
The government? Unmoved.
Your hands? Tied.
If this were a movie, people would leave the cinema saying:
“This plot twist is too cruel.”
“That’s not how heroes are supposed to fall.”
“Where was God in all this?”
But that’s the thing.
This wasn’t fiction.
It was Good Friday.
Good Friday doesn’t open with glory.
It begins with grief.
It’s the story of a man who loved deeply and lost painfully.
He was cancelled before cancel culture.
Judged without evidence.
Mocked in silence.
And left to die on a borrowed cross like a criminal - though He had done no wrong.
And here’s what stuns me every time:
He saw it coming… and still showed up.
Now that’s the kind of courage Hollywood can’t script.
