Lent 2026 – “Why Did Jesus Have to Die” (Resource: book by Adam Hamilton.)

The crucifixion of Jesus stands at the heart of the Christian faith, yet it raises profound questions that many believers grapple with: “Why did Jesus have to die?” “Did God need for Jesus to suffer?” “How does His death so long ago absolve us of our sins today?” If you’ve ever wondered about these questions, simply said “I believe in the crucifixion, I just don’t fully understand it,” or had questions about the significance of Jesus’ death, join us over the next six weeks as we explore the various theories of atonement and seek to understand the meaning of the crucifixion.
