Easter Thoughts

Peter Wehner wrote an interesting piece in the New York Times this week, What It Means To Worship A Man Crucified As A Criminal that I thought worth saving and posting. The crux of the article:

"As a non-Christian friend of mine put it to me recently, the idea that people would worship a God who is compassionate toward us is one thing, but to worship a God who suffers and dies — as a condemned criminal, no less — is distinct to Christianity. In my friend’s understated words, “When you think about it, it is a little strange.”"

It is worth reading and thinking about this Easter.
