Christ’s work on the cross established a kingdom that is strange indeed, if a king died on the cross in order to establish it. It is a kingdom where suffering and abandonment are transformed into the power of presence and live, a kingdom where a King exchanges gifts of great value for worthless dross, where a robber becomes righteous, and a criminal becomes the first citizen of heaven. Spend some time as Easter draws near considering the strange, upside-down kingdom, where broken things are made whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e“A king who dies on the cross must be the king of a rather strange kingdom.” \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e—Dietrich Bonhoeffer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"\u003cem\u003eStrange Kingdom\u003c\/em\u003e is a joy.
