In the weeks leading up to Easter, several difficult theological questions rise to the surface. How is the Trinity involved in the crucifixion and resurrection? What do we make of Jesus’s cry of dereliction? What should we say (or not say) about the atonement? Where does Christ “go” during his three days in the tomb?
The CBR folks have created several brief explainers over the years, so we created a brief one-stop shop here for some of these big questions:
