Summary: Crucifixion was cruel, ghastly, brutal, horrific and scandalous. The Jewish people considered those who died on the cross a disgrace and cursed, the Romans considered them defeated - losers died on crosses. How then does Jesus declare the event of the cross to be the pinnacle of His and His Father's glory? And how does Paul come to a place where he says he will boast in nothing but the offense of the cross? This message unpacks the paradox of the cross.
