Religion says 'do'. Jesus said
'done'.
In this series, we're exploring
the difference between religion and what Jesus did on the cross. John
Stott once said, 'The cross is the blazing fire at which God's love sets
fire to our hearts, but we must get close enough to it to experience
its sparks falling on us.' In this series, we get real close.
Christ-followers and seekers can expect to be significantly moved.
