Items related to Why the Cross?
The Bible's account of Jesus' death on the cross is one of history's greatest dramas.
It has moved millions, changed lives, and inspired great art, music and religious devotion. It is the means by which the profound puzzle of cosmic evil and human wrongdoing can be undone. It stands at the center of the Christian faith.
Yet the cross represents a stumbling block. It is an astonishingly simple notion - God coming to earth to suffer for us - but the idea that God can seem to fail by dying is difficult to accept. How can a Palestinian Jew, executed on an instrument of torture 2,000 years ago, make any difference now?
