"He is Risen!" - Mark 15:33-16:8 - Nathan Edwards

"In Our Place" - Mark 15:1-39 - Nathan Edwards

"The Mysterium Tremendum" - Mark 14:32-52 - Nathan Edwards

Do you know how determined God is to save? In Gethsemane we witness the dreadful prayer that reveals God's irrevocable will to save sinners. There is fear and beauty here, it frightens and it fascinates. We have God's "yes" because Jesus received God's "no."
