Unlike the UK and USA, Good Friday is a public holiday in Australia -- and rightly so! Good Friday is good.
Here's a great vid for thinking about the cross.
After that check out Scot McKnight's reflection An Atoning Death.
And if you doubt the importance of the Christus Victor view of the atonement then go and sing a few lines from the hymn Christ Alone: "And as he stands in victory, sins curse has lost its grip on me!".
Happy Good Friday!

It's a public holiday in most of the UK, although not in Scotland.
