Why Did Jesus Have to Die?

Why Did Jesus Have to Die?

Fr. Chris responds to a recent Tik-Tok creator who suggests that Jesus did not have to die for our sins.  By looking at the attributes of God and the true nature of sin, we understand better the divide that existed between us and God.  Not only that, but when we examine the role of the Old Testament sacrificial system, Jesus own death can be viewed in a new light.  When we examine these things we begin to grasp how love and justice, mercy and accountability fit into the economy of God.

The Purpose and Power of the Resurrection

While many people believe in the Resurrection, a study by Lifeway research found that many Christians do not understand why the Resurrection is relevant to their lives.  In this teaching, Fr. Chris, walks through the centrality of the Resurrection to the Christian faith, why the accounts of the Resurrection are reliable, and why the Resurrection is the anchor of life in Christ.
