"He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5)
Suffering is the inevitable condition of fallen humanity. Without faith in Christ and an understanding of his sanctifying sacrifice, people and societies lose hope and descend into despair, with its accompanying behaviors. Christ's Passion is the ultimate act of redemption and mercy, overcoming death and giving meaning and purpose to suffering. The Passion and Resurrection provide hope - the only hope - for humanity, and the only answer for suffering. We strive to make Christ known and loved through the Passion ... to give people hope for humanity, the answer for suffering, and faith in the resurrection. We strive to show people Christ's love. We seek to bring Christ's love through the Passion to schools and churches, but especially to hospices and care facilities, missions and shelters, prisons, and everywhere God's people suffer or struggle for meaning, purpose, and hope.
The "Realistic Crucifix"
This unique wall crucifix was conceived in the wake of an extensive and unsuccessful search for a plausible depiction of the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth. We believe this to be the most realistic and accurate wall crucifix available. 100% of proceeds from the sales of our original, unique Realistic Crucifixes support the mission of Christ Crucified.
