About this title

Synopsis

Listen in on a conversation between two people having an open and candid discussion about the cross. One assumes the role of teacher or coach, someone who has had the time and opportunity to study the faith in some depth. The other is curious, knows a little bit about the faith, and brings a lot of questions: So what's with the cross? What does the cross say about God? What's the big deal? Did Jesus have to die? Introduction Chapter 1: A Man Hanging on a Tree Chapter 2: Portraits and Perspectives Chapter 3: Ransom and Victory Chapter 4: Substitution, Satisfaction, and Sacrifice Chapter 5: Example and Encouragement Chapter 6: Event and Experience
