We created this video for our Good Friday service, where we showed it during a drama in which a man walks onto stage and stands staring at the advertisement-covered cross shown in the video. After a minute, he begins tearing ads off the cross, slowly at first, and then faster. As he tears off the final ads, the words “You are forgiven” are revealed beneath it all, and the man kneels at the cross.

Our creative arts team had seen a drama/video very much like this at the U-Turn conference at Faith Church in Dyer, IN, and we decided that we would try our hand at re-creating it…
