Paschal mystery!
The moments in our spiritual life when we cry, “Crucify him! Crucify him!” are not likely to be “high praise”
moments. Crucifixions happen by our negligence and our selfishness. We crucify when we destroy, uproot, tear
down, or otherwise extinguish life and that which is life-giving. Often, we don’t realize it until it is too late.
However, we believe in a God who brings life from death, even when we cause the death. That is the ultimate
Paschal Mystery.
