In the Cross of Christ I Glory

 Are we so familiar with the cross that we don't really see it any more for what it is?  It has become a fashion statement to many but it is not up to us to be the judge of the heart wearing that cross or what it sybolizes to them.

Is the cross becoming the cruciform - just a geometric shape like a rectangle or square? Are we witnessing the death of one of the world's richest and most potent symbols?

Well, I don't think so. Not while there are still people who believe it can change the world.


The Cross
Our Promise of Eternal Life













"There is a power within the cross which reaches deep into the human heart and into the human emotions, that challenges hatred and challenges unforgiveness, and challenges a commitment to violence"...Canon Justin Welby


These photos were taken by my sister-in-law in Groom, Texas. 
They are truly the story of Easter.


In the Cross of Christ I Glory, towering o'er the wrecks of time.......Peace is there that knows no measure, joys that through all time abide.
