stations of salvation

the cross is always seen as the central message of the christian faith

in fact, the cross is one of the most recognized symbols in the world [the golden arches of mcdonalds are more recognizable]

but did the notion of jesus dying on a cross come out of nowhere? was this a last minute audible called by god the quarterback? or, was the cross the culmination of the story of salvation that god had been calling since the beginning?

at this time of year the stations of the cross are quite popular with our catholic brothers and sisters and we want to partake in this worship service but add another element to it as well. we are going to, quite literally, spend some time walking through some of the old testament to see god's plan of salvation for the world in action even before the time of jesus.

there will be music, movie clips, discussion and time to explore the past in a new light.

your comments will be appreciated both on the evening and afterwards for posting.

let us take time to truly reflect and celebrate this special time of year as we see that god's plans have existed for centuries and continue to live on in this day and age.
