Theology of the Cross (157)
  1. Each week, we will reflect on a few of the theses leading up to this year’s Here We Still Stand Conference in October. Each post will also include a new translation completed by Caleb Keith.

  4. God is the God of failures, for He became one for you. There is no failure of ours that is bigger than Jesus’ cross, no sin of ours that can overshadow the cross.

  8. The Theology of the Cross is a recurring theme on the Thinking Fellows.
  9. “Putting hope in the cross of Christ means putting hope outside of anything – mentally, physically or even spiritually – you do.”
  10. On episode THIRTY of Let the Bird Fly! the guys abandon Peter, so he is forced to find something to talk about.
  11. We are forgiven for Christ’s sake. Losers set free to trust in God’s promises.
  12. There’s something very attractive about both the cross-ladder and the cross-crutches. In fact, there’s something about both of them that the woodworker within us finds eminently more appealing than the simple cross of Jesus.
