Holy Week brings us to the intersection of death and life. As historian Eamon Duffy writes, “The cross is not some arbitrary demand of God imposed on a hapless victim, but a marker where human beings find themselves at the intersection of justice and mercy, time and eternity, death and life.” During these holy days we will explore these themes along with belonging and betrayal, truth and deceit, hospitality and humility, as we stand at the crossroads of our lives and ask, “Which way do we go?”
