crucifixion

This is the second part of my interview with Dr. Glenn Kreider, a professor at Dallas Theological Seminary. The interview is about beauty and sentimentality, and this segment looks specifically at the cross and resurrection.

The video runs about 5 minutes.

This is My Body, broken for you.

This is My Blood, spilled for you.

You walk back to your seat and kneel first for a bit. In the loft above, the pianist and organist play. A voice joins in.

Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day.

The priests, deacons, and chalice-bearers have changed into their black robes. They strip the communion table, the elements, the cross, the candle.

It is finished.
