Doxologies: Panel on Worship, Part 11

How does our view of the church affect our worship of God? In the eleventh part of our panel on worship, Jason VanDorsten walks through Ephesians 5 to show how marriage is a living parable of the Gospel, and it points to the church as the beautiful bride of Christ. But all of the beauty the church possesses is because Jesus ascribes it to her.

Doxologies: Shadow of the Cross

Everything Jesus did was done with His death in view.

“Shadow of the Cross” is a song written in an effort to capture this stunning reality: Jesus Christ always knew that death on a cross was the climax of His mission. In other words, every thought, every feeling, and every action of Jesus’ life was done “in the shadow of the cross.” The cross was always looming before Him, and He was always moving toward it.

The acoustic version of “Shadow of the Cross” is available at iTunesApple MusicAmazon, and Google Play. The full studio version will be coming soon!

We have created a study guide that, along with the song, is designed to help us move through Palm Sunday to Resurrection Sunday with deep reflection and growing gratitude as we focus our attention on the events that occurred the week leading up to Jesus’ death and resurrection.
