Embracing the Cross of Christ. Introduction.

The author ponders about a way of life that embraces the cross of Christ through the answering of several questions that arise in order to achieve this task: What is the cross of Christ? And how is this cross the most important means to follow Christ towards His promised resurrection for his disciples according to the apostle Paul of Tarsus? Why are many Christians so far from this cross in our world today and what do we need to do to embrace it fully? Do we need to carry it as well? Can we be transformed by the cross? What is the final destination of the cross of Christ for us?
