The crucifixion of Jesus: dreadful mistake? Tragic failure? Irrelevant? Absurd? An embarrassment?

The cross of Christ is, in fact, at the centre of God's plan for men and women. 'Cross examined' explains why.

Using a wealth of illustration, Mark Meynell looks with freshness and clarity at the Bible's teaching, to show how God himself 'cross-examines' us in the death of Jesus.

At the cross, God exposes our deepest need, meets it fully and enables us to live transformed lives.
