OVERVIEW
When we really face off with the Cross, we're brought to our knees in agony over what we’ve done—what we still do—that put him there. We're chastened, put right, and reoriented by the Cross. As Isaac Watts so poignantly put it, “When I survey the wondrous cross . . . [I] pour contempt on all my pride.”

This download is meant to give you an opportunity to stand before the Cross; to survey it, contemplate it, and absorb the meaning of Jesus’ act of sacrificial love. The articles in these pages also lead you to the empty tomb: to Resurrection Sunday when we rejoice in Christ’s victory over sin and death.
