As many Christian practices increasingly focus on the “happy” elements of the faith, Good Friday observances are in danger of becoming nothing more than a nominal holiday: a fleeting thought that occurs roughly two days before Easter egg hunts. Why is such a trend troubling, why might this trend be taking place, and what do Christians stand to gain from a renewed interest in Good Friday?
To answer these questions, musicologist Dylan Crosson investigated some of the ways in which Christians have historically observed Good Friday and discussed how their practices might reinvigorate one’s investment in the Friday we call “Good.”
This was recorded live during the Carmen House Speaker Series event on the campus of The Ohio State University.
