Why the Cross?
Edward Leen
Jesus Christ’s death on the Cross is the central act of human
existence; according to Edward Leen, it also holds the key to human
happiness. In this book, Leen explains why you will never find true joy
by trying to avoid suffering, but only by embracing it willingly and
following in the footsteps of Christ. Why the Cross? helps you reject
non-Christian assumptions about suffering that Christians can pick up
unwittingly from the secular culture — and to face your life’s
trials with joyful confidence in God.
