From the Inside Flap

The crucifixion of Jesus:

a dreadful mistake?
a tragic failure?
irrelevant?
absurd?
an embarrassment?

The cross of Christ is, in fact, at the centre of God s plan for men and women. This book explains why.

Using a wealth of illustration, Mark Meynell looks with freshness and clarity at the Bible s teaching, to show how God himself cross-examines us in the death of Jesus.

At the cross, God exposes our deepest need, meets it fully and enables us to live transformed lives.

Mark Meynell has an enviable ability to take the ancient story and, without twisting or diluting it, bring it to life for the postmodern world.
