Does the Father punish Jesus on the Cross? In this episode, we talk about Penal Substitution and why the Catholic Church doesn’t teach it. Instead, we look at Scripture, the Catechism, and what the early Christians actually believed: that Jesus freely offered Himself in love, uniting us back to the Father and healing us from the inside out. The Cross isn’t divine anger — it’s divine love confronting human sin and transforming it. If you’ve ever wondered how the Cross saves us, this episode will help make things click.
