Leaders guide included.Story Behind the BookOur whole identity with Christ is found in the cross. It was there that God dealt totally with sin. And it is there that God intends us to be united with Christ in His death so that we would forever hate sin, abhor sin, and forsake sin. In our intimate relationship with Christ and His crucifixion, God intends for us to obtain His perspective on sin-to feel its horrors, as Christ does, and then to let God put sin to death in our lives-as He did in the crucifixion of His Son. The victory accomplished through Christs death and resurrection is the very same victory we can experience daily in our lives!-Henry Blackaby
