Marc and Fuller went live on Facebook via Zoom on Good Friday 2020 to talk about the beauty of Good Friday. In this episode, we talk about Jesus’ entering into Jerusalem, why the crowd went from “Hosanna” to “crucify him” in less than a week, why the Romans wanted Jesus dead, what Jesus accomplished on the cross, and why that’s import for us today.
As Protestants, we don’t need to be afraid to have a theology of the cross, and we hope that this conversations help you develop your thinking and beliefs.
