Why?

For us to understand the mission of the life of Jesus. Jesus literally lived to die—his purpose was to become the sacrificial lamb who would once and for all atone for the sin of humanity. We ponder if his death was necessary, meaning could there have been any other way? Why did Jesus have to die? In this, we consider the historical setting of Jesus’ life and death and what that means for us today. We pray to properly ready ourselves for the Resurrection Sunday.
