    Often romanticized, bejeweled, and loved as beautiful – but symbol of the cross was nothing of the sort when Jesus met it two thousand years ago. It was the most hideous, damnable, obscene instrument of death one could imagine.

Then as you would look at the crowd gathered around the foot of that cross, you’d be impressed by the various facial expressions and ...read more
