Before we can appreciate Easter, we have to be honest about where we actually are.
The world is a mess. We all know it. And no amount of social media posts, cancel culture, or political solutions is going to fix the real problem ... because the real problem is us.
Paul doesn't sugarcoat it: we're all sinners. Every one of us falls short. And sin has a payday.
But God already knew that. And He already had a plan.
The cross wasn't a tragedy, it was the destination all along. And the gift of life on the other side of it? Completely free.
