“A Violent Grace” Book Study

Meeting Christ at the Cross by Michael Card. What is it all about? “Jesus was condemned so we could be set free. He was wounded so we can be healed. He died so we might have life. The cross has lost much of its appeal as a symbol of Christianity. Yet what Christ did at the cross remains central to our faith. In this richly designed book, Michael Card reflects on what it means for Christians that we meet our savior at a cross. Card combs the Old Testament prophecies and Gospel accounts of Jesus; self-sacrifice, seeking a renewed vision of the cross―the inconceivable meeting place of violence and grace.” There is no cost for the class. The book on Amazon is $8.99. To sign up, email Jim Stoltenberg, celide1947@gmail.com.
