It's part 3 of our series for Lent, "God's Not Mad" and today we're talking about the cross. I don't know about you, but I was taught to believe that Jesus died on the cross because God was mad at my sin and so He took my punishment so that if I would "believe in Him" and "surrender to Him" I'd get to go to heaven when I die instead of hell. In short, my sin and everybody's sin is a big problem for God and Jesus is the answer.
What if that's not it, though? Like, what if it's more than that? Different than that? Better than that?
Let's talk about it!
