Focuses on the profound and personal nature of Jesus Christ's sacrifice.

Key Theological Themes:

Substitutionary Sacrifice:

The core idea is that Jesus willingly took the punishment for humanity's sins upon Himself. The message explains that the cross was not just an act of historical suffering, but a divine exchange where Christ bore our personal sins and shame.

The Weight of Sin: Pastor Greg emphasized the burden of personal sin, establishing why a sacrifice was necessary.

A Personal Atonement: While the event of the cross is universal, the sermon connects it to the individual viewer. The phrase "My Cross" highlights the personal ownership Christ took over the viewer's burdens and failures.The Power of Forgiveness: A central point is the freedom and forgiveness that flows from the act on the cross. The finished work of Christ is presented as the foundation for peace, reconciliation with God, and a new life free from the condemnation of the past.

Ending with a call for us to move beyond general knowledge of the event to a deep, personal acceptance of this substitutionary work. This often includes encouraging greater gratitude, commitment, and a more dedicated walk of faith in light of the ultimate sacrifice made.
