Done to Death (Luke 23:33-43)

No. On Reign of Christ Sunday, the final Sunday in the Christian year, holding up the crucifixion of Jesus is counter-intuitive just to the extent that what the world is generally looking for in a ruler is exactly the opposite of what Jesus provides.

The world doesn’t want a God who’s willing to be done to death, but a God who never gets put in that lethal situation in the first place.
