Crucifixion

"Jane Williams, a theologian who is also married to Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, said the theological basis for the day's discussion is "not a distraction from the work of equipping ourselves for mission. Jesus was prepared to humble himself." The crucifixion, she said, is "not the way we expect power to be displayed" in the world, but the church experiences it as "the power of God at work." Humanity, all too often, "falls back into ways of power that are not Christ-like," she said."
