The Cross. You have seen it. You have worn it. Maybe you have even prayed to it. But do you know it? Any serious study of the Christian claim is, at its essence, a study of the cross. To accept or reject Christ without careful examination of Calvary is like deciding on a car without looking at the engine. So take a good look at the cross. Examine this hour in history. Look at the witnesses. Listen to the voices. Watch the faces. Most of all, observe the one they call the Savior. Because what he did is the one thing that matters most of all. ?I just want to know what counts.? Ian was a student at a university where I was visiting. I found out he wanted to be a Christian, but was disenchanted. ?I grew up in the church,? he explained. ?I wanted to go into the ministry. But I quit. Something just didn?t click.? He summarized his frustration. ?Don?t talk to me of religion. Go to the essence. What really matters?? You?ve probably wrestled with this question. Maybe you?ve gone through the acts of religion and faith and yet found yourself at a dry well. Prayers seem empty, goals unthinkable. But resting on the time line of history is the part that really matters. ? Its tragedy summons all sufferers ? Its absurdity attracts all cynics ? Its hope lures all searchers Far more than a gold-plated symbol of religious belief, the cross is the centerpiece of the Christian faith -- the meeting place of time and eternity. Where God and man encounter each other. Max Lucado takes you through the drama of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ -- bringing to life Peter's denial, Pilate's hesitancy, and John's loyalty. Relive the events leading up to Jesus' crucifixion, from the foggy garden of Gethsemane to the incandescent room of the resurrection. No Wonder They Call Him the Savior leads you up the hill of mankind's highest hope and reminds you why he deserves to be called our Savior.
