The Panic Room - Episode 13

Black Friday? or Good Friday?

Fri 10 Apr 2020

How can the horrific death of Jesus on a cross be something to celebrate? How do you make sense of the Christian conviction that 'the wrath of God was satisfied' through the crucifixion of His only son? Is God involved in some kind of sick 'cosmic child abuse'? Why is God so angry?

David Robertson and Stephen McAlpine discuss what the death of Jesus means and why it is so significant.
