About this episode

This episode discusses the significance of the cross in re-founding the world around love and forgiveness instead of power and violence.

The third temptation was to avoid the cross. But the cross is how Jesus re-founds the world. Instead of being organized around an axis of power enforced by violence, at the cross Jesus reorganized the world around an axis of love expressed in forgiveness.
