You see, it was only the grip of sin and shame that had been concluded with the cry, 'It is finished.' With that conclusion, a brand-new chapter begins on Sunday, but this time you are in the story." - Excerpt from today's [HIS]tory: Journey Through Holy Week [HIS]tory: Journey Through Holy Week...
