Transformed by the Cross Series
The cross of Christ is central to the Bible, to history, and to our lives as followers of Jesus.
God in his infinite wisdom has transformed a cruel instrument of execution into a symbol of worship for everyone who calls on the name of Jesus. Though the cross is foolishness to some and a stumbling block to others, the Apostle Paul called it the “power of God to those who are being saved” (1 Corinthians 1).
This fall season at Antioch, we are examining different aspects of what Jesus accomplished through his bloody death on Calvary. How does Jesus’ sacrifice in our place change the way we live? What are the implications of the cross for everyday living? Join us as we take a deeper look at God crucified.
