Dr. Edward Sri shares the Biblical background to each scene in Christ’s passion. What was Jesus going through at each moment? How did the Old Testament foretell of Christ’s death? Why did Christ die for us? What did it accomplish? What was the meaning behind of the tearing of the temple veil, the crowning with thorns, and other events during Christ’s Passion? Join us today to better understand the importance of the Passion.
