Gloria Crucis addresses delivered in Lichfield Cathedral Holy Week and Good Friday, 1907

"Gloria Crucis" by J. H. Beibitz presents a fresh look at the meaning of the Cross, based on talks given in a cathedral in 1907, that questions old ideas about punishment and forgiveness. Instead of seeing God as angry, Beibitz shows Christ's death as the greatest act of love, offering a way for humans to reconnect with God as an escape from darkness and return to righteousness. The book looks at how sin and the crucifixion have affected us, suggesting sin itself is the real issue people face. It hopes to change how people understand the Cross, showing how it still matters today, by mixing the Bible with modern thoughts.
