Placarding Christ Crucified

When Paul preached the cross, he was met with persecution.

In 2008, the cross is popular in the worst kind of way. It hangs on rear view mirrors of cars, worn on t-shirts and tattooed on body parts. The meaning is lost and people are hostile to hearing the truth about it.

“Placarding Christ Crucified.”
How do we do that in this day and age? Practically speaking what does it look like for us to take Christ crucified into our work places and classrooms?

When you choose daily to be faithful, to live out the truth of what God has accomplished on the cross through His Son… I think you become a kind of a placard for Christ.

May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. Galatians 6:14
