The Scapegoat and The Cross

Update: 2021-11-22

Description

In our culture we all need someone to blame. We need someone to unleash our wrath upon, someone to pile all of our collective woes upon. Something terrible happens, we look for someone to accuse and blame, and we need someone to crucify.

This week, I am drawing from my own experiences and observations of our world as I discuss the scapegoat culture and the work and mystery of the cross as discussed in Christian text.
