It was shocking to see how people in the past (the crusaders) misinterpreted the cross. Even more shocking are the consequences of these interpretations. I was reading
“The Cross of Christ” by John W. Stott,
for another class and I found it a very helpful book for every Christian. It is important to not only understand the cross right, but also to live accordingly. I highly recommend this book! Although it is not strongly connected to the topic of our class, it is definitely a book that you want to read at least once in your lifetime.
