SERIES: Terrible/Beautiful The Final Days of Jesus
*MESSAGE: The Cross*
TEXT: Matthew 27:32-50
SYNOPSIS: The cross is the point of conflict between the world and the Kingdom of God. It represents a regime change (Brueggemann). But the cross is not central to what is happening, Jesus would have dies one way or another. What does that tells us about God's connection to us?
